What is an 80G Registration?
80G Registration is an approval granted by the Income Tax Department of India that allows donors to claim tax deductions on the donations they make to your NGO, Trust, or Society. This registration increases the credibility of your organization and encourages more people and companies to contribute to your cause.
Key Benefits About 80G Registration
1. Tax Benefits for Donors
Donors can claim 50% or 100% tax deduction on the amount donated to your NGO under Section 80G of the Income Tax Act.
2. Not Mandatory, but Highly Beneficial
While NGOs can operate without 80G, most CSR partners, individuals, and donors prefer contributing only to 80G-approved organizations.
3. Builds Trust & Donor Confidence
80G certification enhances credibility and transparency, showing that your NGO meets the standards set by the government.
4. Encourages Fundraising
Since donors get tax benefits, NGOs with 80G tend to receive more donations and long-term funding support.
5. Issued by the Income Tax Department
The registration involves verification of your NGO’s documents, accounts, activities, and compliance history.
Why is 80G Important for NGOs?
-
Boosts fundraising potential
-
Helps attract CSR funds
-

-
Shows proper compliance and transparency
⚙️Step-by-Step Guide to 80G Registration :-
Step 1: Ensure NGO Eligibility
Your NGO must be properly registered as a Trust, Society, or Section 8 Company and must not use its funds for non-charitable activities.
Step 2: Gather Required Documents
Collect essential documents such as registration certificate, PAN, financial statements, activity reports, bylaws, and details of trustees/members.
Step 3: Apply Online on the Income Tax Portal
Create or log in to your NGO’s account on the Income Tax e-filing portal and fill out Form 10A (or Form 10AB for renewal).
Step 4: Upload Supporting Documents
Submit all relevant documents including registration proof, audited accounts, governing documents, bank statements, and activity reports.
Step 5: Verification by the Income Tax Department
The department reviews your documents. In some cases, they may ask for additional information or schedule an online/offline inspection.

Once the application is approved, your NGO will receive the 80G Registration Certificate, allowing donors to claim tax deductions.
Step 7: Maintain Compliance After Registration
