We cover all non-profit registration structures and post-registration compliance including FCRA, CSR-1, and NGO Darpan.
Simplest and quickest NGO structure. Registered with Sub-Registrar (like a property deed). Minimum 2 trustees. Suitable for small charitable activities, family philanthropic initiatives, and religious purposes. Trust Deed defines objects and rules.
Membership-based organization registered with Registrar of Societies. Suitable for professional associations, alumni groups, welfare organizations, and community groups. Governed by MOA and Bye-Laws. Annual general meetings and elections required.
Most credible NGO structure regulated by MCA. Required for receiving CSR funds from most large corporations. Higher governance standards, mandatory audit, and annual ROC compliance. Preferred by institutional donors, foreign funders, and government agencies.
FCRA registration allows NGOs to receive foreign donations from overseas individuals, foundations, and international organizations. Requires 3+ years of NGO existence with track record. Filed with Ministry of Home Affairs. Separate FCRA bank account mandatory.
CSR-1 registration on MCA portal is mandatory for NGOs to receive Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) funds from companies under Section 135 of Companies Act. Enables NGOs to appear on the MCA CSR portal for company selection. Required by most CSR-giving corporations.
NGO Darpan is NITI Aayog's platform that provides a unique NGO ID (UID) to registered NGOs. Mandatory for receiving government grants, Central Government project participation, and various central scheme funding. Required for FCRA prior permission application.
