An ngo is classified into various categories. Basically people form trust, society or section 8 company. Ninety percent of the people opt for trust as it is easy to form, no complexity, no tough compliance part. Even, you can involve family members in national level trust registration or ngo registration. For society, you need 7 members from various states i.e. every member shall be from different state and further, there can be no family member in the society. It is time taking as well as complicated due to various compliance part which is involved with reference to society and if you don’t file annual compliance in government office, there is penalty imposed on the society. In case of section 8 company, you have to provide at least 2 directors. Directors can be from abroad also. A section 8 company which is registered under companies act, 2013 is a non-profit organization formed with the objective of promoting philanthropic activities. It operates without the motto of earning profits instead focusing on social welfare, education, art, culture and other well being purposes. In a section 8 company, profits earned are completely reinvested back into the company’s objectives rather than distributed among its members unlike private limited companies. These companies have to maintain transparency in their operations and adhere to regulations set by the Ministry of Corporate Affairs to protect their non-profit status. The formation of a section 8 company requires approval from the central government where they have to file memorandum of association and articles of association for the proposed activities which they have to execute in future. Overall, section 8 companies play a vital role in civil society fostering growth in various sectors by mobilizing resources for the greater good. But in section 8 company also, compliance part is more and you can be heavily penalized if you don’t file compliance even for a year unlike trusts and societies where there are no such issues. Forms like AOC4 and MGT7, Inc-Form 20A, ADT1 are compulsory in companies. If the compliance is not filed in roc of companies yearly, there is huge penalty per day for a single form. If compliance part is skipped for 2 years in case of companies, the company is striked off and the din of the directors are deactivated and those directors cannot form any other company as the rules and regulations of registrar of companies in the future. There is penalty on activation of dins of directors as well. Every year, kyc of directors is mandatory in case of companies. Overall, trust registration is much better as a trust is easier and flexible to run.

Trust registration

One of the most famous legal procedure for individuals and groups that intend to carry out non-profit charitable, religious, educational or social welfare activities is trust registration in India. In a trust, the person who appears in registrar office in front of sub-registrar on the date of registration of trust is settlor who is also called creator of the trust. The settlor transfers property or assets to the trustees who will manage the property for the benefit of the beneficiaries or for charitable purposes. Private trusts in India are regulated by the Indian Trusts Act of 1882 whereas public charitable or religious trusts are governed by state laws and the principles of equity and justice. The registration of a trust gives the entity legal recognition, makes it easier to manage the assets in a systematic way and boosts the trustworthiness of the trust in the eyes of donors, the government and financial institutions. Ninety percent of people go for registration of trust as it is cost effective and involves less complexity and time duration is very less for its registration. Also, trust can formed just by 2 members. As far as ngo amendment is considered, that can be also done in very short period of time. There is no mandatory compliance like filing of meeting records, attendance records etc. In case of ngos registered under Indian Societies Act, 1860 and Section 8 Companies Act, 2013, compliance part is very strict and it is mandatory for the entity to file annual compljance records of past years before the amendment is done. The trust registration procedure in our country India is relatively time-saving and simple when it is compared with ngos registered under other acts. First, drafting of a trust deed is the basic step which is the major document of the trust. The details like the name of the trust, its registered address, details of the settlor and trustees, objectives, the process of appointment and removal of trustees, powers and duties of trustees and the rules for management of trust property are mentioned in the trust deed. After the finalization of the trust deed, it must be executed on non-judicial stamp paper of appropriate value which varies from state to state. After that, the deed is presented before the Sub-Registrar of the concerned jurisdiction for trust registration. Overall, trust registration can be done within fifteen to twenty working days depending on the availability of local authorities, availability of appointment slots and completeness of documentation. The shorter time span of registration makes trusts a convenient option for immediate commencement of charitable activities. The documents required for trust registration in India are very simple. First and foremost, there shall be memorandum in original along with aadhaar card and pan card of settlor, kyc documents of other trustees, address proof like electricity bill or water bill of non government organization and passport-size photographs of the trustees. After trust registration, its permanent account number or PAN is mandatory for opening a bank account and for adhering to tax laws. If the trust intends to apply for income tax benefits under sections 12a and 80g of the Income Tax Act, 1961, additional documentation relating to activities and financial projections may be required at a later stage. If the trust or ngo wishes to seek international funds, it has to apply for fcra prior permission or fcra permanent registration whose license is granted by Department of Foreigners’ Division, Ministry of Home Affairs. After obtaining approval from government authority, trusts are eligible to accept domestic donations but they have to comply the relevant laws. They can also apply for funds or grants through state or central government departments, corporate entities under corporate social responsibility (CSR) initiatives and foreign organizations. As a whole, a properly managed trust enjoys perpetual existence, ensuring continuity of philanthropic objectives even after the lifetime of the settlor. The future scope of a registered trusts in India are wide and continuously expanding, especially in view of increasing emphasis on philanthropy, social responsibility and sustainable development. A registered trust can undertake a large number of activities such as running schools and colleges, hospitals and clinics, orphanages, old-age homes, environmental protection initiatives, skill development centers and rural development programs.
