Conclusion

  • Registration under Section 12AB entitles a non-profit organization to a tax rate exemption. Failure to do so will make them ineligible to file ITRs.
  • The 80G clause, on the other hand, assures that a person donating to a non-profit organization can deduct the amount from their taxable income, resulting in greater donations.
    • The new provisions took effect from October 1, 2020, and every trust or institution that is already in existence is required to renew the certificate given under sections 12A, 12AA, 80G, or 35 within the time period provided, which was no later than December 31, 2020.
    • If a new trust or institution is formed, it must apply for registration under section 12AB within the timeframe specified.
    • Section 80G has also received a similar change in the registration/renewal procedure. As a result, existing trusts/institutions will need to apply for a new registration under section 80G in the same way as section 12AB requires. Form No. 10A or 10AB, as the case may be, shall be used to submit such an application.
    • One significant change is that trusts or institutions that are registered under section 80G must now provide a statement in Form No. 10BD in the required format, detailing the donations received during the year. A donation certificate in Form No. 10BE must also be issued to the donor by the trust or institution.
