Yes, with known identity of the donor.
A charitable or religious institution has substantial source of receipts in form of donations. Such donations may be corpus or voluntary. The Income Tax Law provides blanket exemption to corpus contributions whereas it requires application of voluntary contributions in general for charitable or religious purposes.
