80G Registration

 

Introduction

A NGO can avail income tax exemption by getting itself registered and complying with certain other formalities, but such registration does not provide any benefit to the persons making donations. The Income Tax Act has certain provisions, which offer tax benefits to the "donors". All NGO's should avail the advantage of these provisions to attract potential donors. Section 80G is one of such sections.


Procedure

If an NGO gets itself registered under section 80G then the person or the organisation making a donation to the NGO will get a deduction of 50% from his/its taxable income. 

Earlier registration under 80G was given as one-time registration unless any specific restrictions are provided in the registration certificate itself but Finance Act 2020 has made some substantial changes in registration process and period for which approval will be given.

 

New Registrations

An application for fresh registration under section 80G will be given to Principal Commissioner or Commissioner. A provisional registration for 3 years will be given to organisations. The registration once granted shall be valid for three years from the Assessment Year from which the registration is sought. Application for renewal of such new registration needs to be submitted

-    at least six months prior to the expiry of validity period or
-    within 6 months from commencement if activities,
whichever is earlier.


The provisional registration so granted shall be valid for a period of 3 years and hence needs to be renewed at the end of the above mentioned timelines. The registration so renewed shall be valid only for 5 years and needs to be renewed at the end of each 5 years. 

Existing Registration- Validation & Re approvals

Earlier the approval u/s 80G was valid for perpetuity. The Finance Act 2020 provides that all the existing 80G approvals needs to be revalidated and the application for the same should be submitted within three months from 1st April 2021 i.e. on or before 30th June, 2021. As per amended provisions, the revalidation of registrations will be valid for a period of 5 years and thereafter approval for 80G has to be again applied for at least 6 months prior to the expiry of the registration.

In other words, while computing the total income of an assessee and for arriving at the deductible amount under section 80G, first the aggregate of the sums donated has to be found out. The 50 per cent of such donations has to be found out and it should be limited to 10 per cent of the gross total income. If such amount is more than 10 per cent of the gross total income, the excess will have to be ignored.
