Financial Contribution

Cash donation is permitted in Indian Currency upto Rs.2000 under the Act but the department does not permit other than banking mode to receive donations by the Company. Hence it is always safer to receive the money through banks only. Anonymous donors should be avoided and it shall be construed as a violation of the rules and regulations of Income tax act and other Acts also. The following details are necessary while receiving funds.

a. Name of the Donor.
b. PAN Copy
c. Aadhar Card Number
d. E mail id and mobile number.
e. Addresses of the donor.

We have applied on 10-09-2021 for 12A and 80G registration of the Trust. But we are yet to receive the approval. It is better to wait till we get the approval of the same for the 50% tax benefit of the Donor.

Meanwhile, please join our page on facebook or twitter, where we regularly share updates about our activities, beneficiaries and new initiatives. Please stay informed and share it with like minds to support our noble cause.
