SERVICES FOR NGO’S

Afacere is committed to empowering non-governmental organizations (NGOs) and charitable trusts by providing expert guidance through India's specific legal and regulatory framework. We understand that your mission is to drive social change, and our role is to ensure that administrative and compliance hurdles do not slow your progress. Our dedicated team, with deep experience in the NGO sector, offers personalized end-to-end support—from initial registration and tax exemptions to ongoing governance—allowing you to focus entirely on your core objective of creating a better, more equitable society.

The journey begins with helping you establish the most suitable legal structure for your vision, whether as a Trust, Society, or a Section 8 Company. We manage the complete registration process, including drafting essential documents like the Trust Deed, Memorandum of Association, or Bye-laws, and facilitating their submission to the relevant registrar. Our expertise ensures your entity is founded on a solid legal basis, clearly defining your charitable objectives and governance structure right from the start.

Beyond registration, a critical step for operational sustainability is securing tax benefits and government approvals. Afacere provides comprehensive assistance in obtaining the crucial 12A and 80G certifications from the Income Tax Department, which grant tax exemption to the NGO and provide donation tax benefits to your contributors, respectively. We also guide you through the process of applying for Foreign Contribution (Regulation) Act (FCRA) registration if you intend to receive foreign funds, ensuring full compliance with this stringent regulatory area.

Our partnership extends into ongoing compliance and strategic advisory to support your NGO's long-term health and impact. We assist with the preparation and filing of annual returns with the Registrar of Societies/Companies, ensure adherence to GST norms for applicable activities, and provide audit support. By managing these essential legal and financial formalities, Afacere enables your leadership to dedicate maximum resources and energy toward implementing programs, mobilizing communities, and fulfilling your noble mission of societal transformation.
