Trust Registration

Trust Registration

A Trust is a legal entity established to promote charitable, religious, educational, or social objectives for the benefit of society.

Trust Registration in India

Trust registration in India means creating a legal trust for charitable, religious, or private purposes. It starts with drafting a trust deed, which includes the trust name, objectives, settlor, trustees, and registered address. The trust deed registration is done on non-judicial stamp paper and submitted to the local sub-registrar’s office. Required documents include ID proof and address proof of the trustees. After registering a trust, it gains legal identity, can open a bank account, own property, and apply for tax benefits under Section 12A of the Income Tax Act, 1961, and Section 12AA of the Income Tax Act, 1961.

Types of Trust in India

Private Trust – Created for family members or selected individuals.

Public Trust – Formed for the welfare of the general public.

Charitable Trust – Used for charity trust registration, such as education, healthcare, and social work.

Religious Trust – Formed for religious purposes, including mandir trust registration and registration of temple trust.

FAQs – Trust Registration

A trust is an organisation set up to manage assets for charitable, religious, or social purposes. It helps ensure proper management and legal protection of the assets.

Any individual or group of people can create a trust. Trustees are responsible for managing the trust as per its objectives.

To apply for 12A and 80G, your NGO, trust, or Section 8 company must be registered. Apply online on the Income Tax e-filing portal. First file Form 10A for 12A to get income tax exemption by submitting PAN, trust deed, bank details, and activity proof. After 12A approval, apply for 80G using Form 10G so donors can claim tax benefits. Approval generally takes a few months.

Keep accounts, file yearly returns, and follow the trust deed. Trustees must use funds properly and transparently.

Follow the trust deed and legal rules to close it. Assets must go as per the deed or law.

No, but it is highly recommended to register a trust to identify legally, open a bank account, own a property, apply for tax benefits, and take legal action if needed.

The 85% rule means a charitable or religious trust must spend at least 85% of its income on its charitable or religious work in a year to get tax benefits. The remaining 15% can be saved for future use. If the trust cannot spend 85% in the same year, it can carry it forward by following the proper income tax rules.

There is no fixed minimum amount to create a family trust in India. You can start a family trust with a very small amount, even ₹100 or ₹1,000, depending on what assets or money you want to put into the trust.
