Section 80g

India offers tax subsidies to donors to registered ngo under Section 80g in the income tax act. In order to access these advantages, ngos should have certification of 80g where certain requirements are met and regulations are followed. The certification attracts donations since the donor can deduct the amount of the donation, thus promoting philanthropy and aiding in the important work being done by the ngos in the country. To retain their 80g certification and still receive donations without failure, ngos will be required to remain transparent, meet compliance obligations and keep proper records.
