10 March 2021 A trust registered u/s 12AA and 80G received various donations (Voluntary Contributions) in cash ranging from Rs.11 to Rs,7101 totalling to Rs.3,40,487 during FY 2017-18. Apart from this the trust also received donations through cheque amounting to Rs.12,15,740. Receipts for each donation was issued to the donor mentioning name and address of donors.
While making assessment for AY 2018-19 the said sum of Rs.3,40,487 has been charged to tax u/s 68 as unexplained cash credit, although complete list of all donations was submitted during course of assessment.
Consequent to addition u/s 68 section 115BBE was also invoked to charge income tax @ 60% plus surcharge and cess.
Kindly advise.
