What is an FCRA?
The Foreign Contribution Regulation Act (FCRA) is like a set of rules made by the government to keep an eye on money coming into India from other countries for NGOs. It’s there to make sure that the money is used properly and for the right reasons
There are two main ways to get FCRA approval:
- Registration: This is for NGOs that have been around for at least three years and have a good track record.
- Prior Permission: This is for newer NGOs that don’t yet meet the criteria for full registration. It lets them receive foreign funds for specific projects.
If you don’t follow the FCRA rules, it can be a big problem. The government can fine you, stop you from getting foreign funds, or even take legal action. Remember the Hope India Foundation from Indore that lost FCRA approval due to incorrect filings? It’s better to be safe than sorry and follow the rules carefully.
