What is Income Tax Filing for NGOs?
Income tax filing is not just for businesses or individuals. NGOs must also file tax returns each year. It shows transparency and builds trust. Filing helps the government track how funds are used. It also allows NGOs to claim exemptions under various sections of the Income Tax Act.
NGO Experts support organizations in preparing and submitting accurate tax returns. We make sure every document is in place.
Importance of Filing Income Tax for NGOs
Even if the NGO earns no profit, it must file tax returns. Non-compliance can result in penalties. Worse, it can affect the credibility of the organization.
Filing on time helps in getting benefits under sections 12A and 80G. These sections offer tax exemptions to NGOs and donors. That’s why correct income tax filing matters.
