Under the Income Tax Act, certain contributions or donations are eligible for a tax deduction under Section 80G. NGOs or other non-profits must apply for registration and are intensely scrutinized by the IT Department before being granted such a certification. This is because such institutions tend to attract a larger number of donations from corporates and individuals looking to give to charity while saving on tax.

CSA holds a valid Foreign Contribution Regulation Act (FCRA) certificate, enabling us to receive and utilize foreign donations in compliance with the Government of India’s regulations. This allows us to partner with supporters from across the globe.

Our Permanent Account Number (PAN) is registered with the Income Tax Department, ensuring lawful financial transactions and enabling tax-compliant operations for all donations and funding received.

CSA is registered on the Ministry of Corporate Affairs’ CSR portal with a valid CSR-1 certificate, making us eligible to receive funding from corporate entities under the Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) mandate in India.
