Why register as Section 8

Benefits of a Section 8 Company

The most credible non-profit structure — built for tax benefits, grants and lasting social impact.

12A & 80G Tax Benefits

The company's income can be exempt under 12A, while donors claim deductions under 80G.

Higher Credibility

MCA-registered status is trusted by CSR funders, grant agencies and donors over Trusts/Societies.

No Minimum Capital

Start your NGO with any amount of capital — there is no minimum prescribed by law.

Separate Legal Entity

Limited liability for members; the company can own property and contract in its own name.

Stamp Duty Exemption

Section 8 companies enjoy exemption from stamp duty on incorporation in most states.

CSR & Foreign Funding

Eligible for CSR-1 (corporate CSR funds) and FCRA registration for foreign donations.

Is it right for you?
