You must have permission from Min.of Home Affairs under FCRA to receive donation from a foreign country.

It is against law to receive donations from foreign parties without FCRA approval.

For one time donation you can obtain pre-permission from MHA for one time exemption.

If donation is recd. the same should be locked in FD pending approval and should not be used.
