12A and 80G Registration Consultant in Gurugram

12A exempts an NGO's surplus income, and 80G lets donors claim a deduction. Both are applied for online on the income tax portal, so a Gurugram NGO does not need to visit a local office. Form 10A is for new or provisional registration and Form 10AB for regular registration and renewal. ICP Legal prepares the filing and attaches the correct Haryana registration proof. We serve Gurugram from our Noida office.

Key Facts

  • 12A: exemption for the NGO. 80G: deduction for donors.
  • Form 10A: new or provisional registration, valid three years.
  • Form 10AB: regular registration valid five years, and renewal.
  • Filed online. No government fee.
  • Only for NGOs that are already registered.

What 12A and 80G do

12A means income applied to the NGO's charitable objects is exempt, subject to the law's conditions. 80G helps donors claim a deduction, which supports fundraising from individuals and companies, including the corporate donors common in Gurugram. Most NGOs apply for both.

Provisional and regular registration

A new NGO applies in Form 10A and receives provisional registration valid for three years. It then applies in Form 10AB for regular registration valid five years, at least six months before the provisional registration ends. Form 10AB is repeated every five years.

Which proof a Gurugram NGO attaches

  • Trust: the deed registered at the Haryana Sub-Registrar.
  • Society: the online certificate from the District Registrar with its Haryana registration number, plus the memorandum and bye-laws.
  • Section 8 company: the certificate of incorporation and licence from RoC Haryana.

A society certificate carries the state, district and year in its number, so the registration details must match the NGO's records on the portal. We check these before filing.

Other documents usually needed

  • PAN of the NGO and details of trustees, members or directors
  • Bank account details
  • Activity details and, for older NGOs, financial statements
  • Authorisation for the person signing the application

Steps

  1. Log in to the income tax e-filing portal with the NGO's PAN.
  2. Select Form 10A or Form 10AB.
  3. Fill in details and upload documents.
  4. Sign with a digital signature or e-verify.
  5. Respond to any clarification and receive the approval order on the portal.
