80G tax exemption certificate given by NGO.
How to provide 80g tax relief to the donor.
• When a NGO received money donation in cash or cheque, the NGO
should issue a receipt to the donor.
• That donation receipt should bear the CIT approval period and the
number of 80g certificate.
• Nonprofit NGO should avoid receiving money donation through cash
which is safe both for the donor and the organisation. (Form 80g)
• The basic rule for a donor to donate an organisation is 10% of his
annual income. If the donor donates more than the 10%, then the
excess amount will not be considered for tax relief and it will be
ignored.
• Same time the donor get 50% tax exemption for the amount which he
donated on the Gross total income.
• After the deduction under 80 g on the Gross total income, the payable
tax value of the net taxable income will be deducted from actual
payable tax value.
• So the differential value from Actual payable tax and net payable tax
will be the tax relief for the donor.

Lets see how the donor gets 80g tax relief ?
Example :
Mr. Xyz is working in a company and drawing a monthly salary of 20,000
Rupees. He donates an organisation in a month for Rs. 6000/- Now lets
calculate his 80g tax relief:
Annual salary income of Mr. Xyz = 2,40,000
( Income tax on this 24,200 /- )
Several Deductions = 80,000
-----------------
Gross Total income of Mr. Xyz = 1,60,000
Less: Deduction under 80g on taxable income = 3,000
( 50% of the donation amount )
-----------------
Net Income = 1,57,000
( Income tax on this 23,210 /- )
-------------------
So the payable tax on Annual salary = 24,200
Less: the payable tax after deduction under 80g = 23,210
---------------
Actual tax relief to the donor (Mr. Xyz) = 990 Rupees.

To get the 80g certificate
• To get the 80g certificate NGO have to fill the FORM 10G and
they have to attach the activity report for the past 3 years or
the least year with the audited report right from the date of
establishment or of the past 3 years.
• Approval from income tax department. This process may take
several months, to receive the approvals.

maintain a separate account and should not mix the donations
they receive for social cause.
– Other than charitable cause the organization or its byelaw
should not represent any other causes towards spending of
such donation amounts or the assets and incomes of the NGO.

About applying for FCRA 1976
• In all countries, all governments have their own
rules and regulation towards foreign
contribution to their native country. It may be in
currency form or it may be in material form.
• However, it’s our duty and our responsibility to
inform our government before our foreign deals.
• In this vision every nonprofit organization has
the responsibility to inform about their
contribution in any form, which they are going to
receive from outside their native country.

• Our Indian government has specified several
procedures and rules to received foreign funds or
materials from outside sources of India.
• And the Home ministry and External affairs ministry
plays and empowered to monitor and to
administrate such foreign deals.
• So here the Foreign Contribution Regulation Act of
India applies.
• An authorization certificate is being issued by the
home ministry of India which is called FCRA to the
ngo before their play with any type of foreign
contribution.

• So apply for FCRA, nonprofit ngo organization
have to apply by opening a separate bank
account where they should not transact any of
their local funds.
• A separate book keeping, accounting
procedures should be followed as per the
Foreign contribution regulation Act.
• It will be better, if the NGO is applying
specifically for a cause or project, to get the
prior permission.

• NGO sector people use to say, that there are some
special routes to receive foreign currency, even
without prior permission and it shall be informed to
the Government within 30 days on receipt of such
foreign contribution, which is not a healthy approach
and it may lead the nonprofit organization to several
enquiries which may result as punishable offense.
• So the suggestion is, without the knowledge and
prior permission of Indian Government any citizen,
or ngo, should not receive or deal with any foreign
currency or any type of foreign contribution.

FCRA: How to apply for FCRA certificate?
NGO needs FCRA for foreign fundraising.
• Nonprofit NGO organization should have a FCRA
certificate to receive foreign currency funds.
• Any type of NGO should apply to the Central
government for prior permission to receive
foreign currency from outside India towards their
foreign fundraising.
• When you deal with FCRA, you should also know
about the documents during and after the process
of FCRA.
• There are several penalties and punishable
offenses, if you misuse foreign contribution, or if
you import foreign funds without prior permission
with Central government of India.

NGO needs FCRA for foreign fundraising.
• The important point which you should keep in
mind before foreign fundraising or any type of
foreign contribution from outside India.

for foreign contribution, you should not mix
your local bank transactions or any local
currency dealings, with such FCRA bank
account. Bankers may guide you more.

punishments, and imprisonments related to
