Section 80G of the Income Tax Act, 1961 allows individuals and organisations to claim tax deductions on donations made to eligible charitable organisations.
When an organisation obtains an 80G Certificate, it is recognised by the Income Tax Department as eligible to receive tax-deductible donations. Donors contributing to such organisations can claim deductions on their taxable income up to the prescribed limits, encouraging charitable giving while reducing their tax liability.
80G Registration enables donors to claim tax deductions on donations made to eligible charitable organisations.
The registration provides tax benefits to both the donor and the recipient organisation. Charitable institutions registered under Section 80G are authorised to receive tax-deductible donations, while donors can claim deductions while filing their Income Tax Returns.
The Finance Act, 2020 introduced significant amendments requiring organisations registered under Section 80G to file annual returns, undergo verification by the Income Tax Department, and comply with renewal requirements. Registrations may also be reassessed or revoked for non-compliance.
Section 80G Registration allows donors, including individuals, companies, associations, and organisations, to claim deductions on donations made to eligible NGOs under the Income Tax Act.
The deduction is available provided the donated amount does not exceed 10% of the donor's gross total income.
Donations must be made in monetary form, as only financial contributions qualify for deduction under Section 80G.
While issuing donation receipts, NGOs must mention the 80G Registration Number, Certificate Date, and the Validity Period of the certificate to enable donors to claim tax benefits.
Before applying for an 80G Certificate, the charitable organisation must satisfy the following eligibility conditions.
Obtaining Section 80G Registration offers several benefits to both the charitable organisation and its donors.
The following documents are mandatory for obtaining an 80G Registration Certificate. These documents should be submitted along with Form 10A or Form 10G, as applicable.
Keeping these documents ready before initiating the registration process helps ensure faster verification and approval.
The initial provisional registration under Section 80G is valid for three years. After the provisional period expires, organisations must apply for renewal.
Upon successful renewal, the registration remains valid for five years. Thereafter, organisations are required to renew their registration every five years to continue enjoying the benefits available under Section 80G.
For Section 8 Companies, the validity of the existing 80G Registration is up to March 2025. It must be renewed for the Assessment Year (AY) 2025–2026 in March 2025 to continue availing tax benefits under Section 80G.
The procedure for obtaining 80G Registration depends on whether the organisation is applying for provisional registration or seeking regular registration after the provisional period. Both processes are governed by the Income Tax Department and require submission of prescribed forms and supporting documents.
New charitable organisations seeking an 80G Registration Certificate must first obtain provisional registration. The following steps explain the process.
File an application in Form No. 10A before the jurisdictional Commissioner of the Income Tax Department along with the prescribed documents.
The Income Tax Department carefully examines the application and all supporting documents submitted by the organisation.
If the authorities require any clarification or additional documents during verification, the organisation must furnish the requested information within the prescribed time.
Once the Commissioner is satisfied with the application and supporting documents, the 80G Registration Certificate is issued to the organisation.
The validity of provisional 80G Registration begins from the Assessment Year for which registration has been granted.
The application for renewal should be submitted:
Before the provisional registration expires, NGOs must apply for regular registration. Upon successful verification of the organisation's charitable activities and financial records, regular registration is granted for a period of five years.
After obtaining provisional registration and commencing charitable activities, organisations are required to apply for regular 80G Registration. The following steps explain the procedure.
The organisation must complete and submit Form 10G along with all the prescribed supporting documents to the Income Tax Department.
The Income Tax Officer (ITO) may conduct an on-site inspection or verification to validate the information furnished by the organisation and ensure compliance with the provisions of the Income Tax Act.
After successful verification and satisfaction of all statutory requirements, the Income Tax Department grants Regular 80G Registration, which remains valid for a period of five years.
