How It Works

  1. 1

    Draft Trust Deed

    We draft a comprehensive Trust Deed covering objects, trustees, management, succession, and dissolution terms.

  2. 2

    Stamp Paper Execution

    The deed is executed on stamp paper of the prescribed value for your state (varies from ₹200 to ₹2,000+).

  3. 3

    Sub-Registrar Registration

    All trustees appear before the Sub-Registrar (or Charity Commissioner in Maharashtra/Gujarat) to register the deed.

  4. 4

    PAN Application

    We apply for a PAN in the trust's name, which is required for banking and tax filings.

  5. 5

    12A and 80G Application

    We file Form 10A online with the Income Tax Department to obtain 12A (income tax exemption) and 80G (donor deduction) certificates.
