If you are going to run a educational charitable society, you have register the society with jurisdictional Commissioner of Income Tax, provided if you fulfill the following conditions. Income of the society registered under income tax is exempted from income tax.
The following points should normally be kept in mind at the time of making an application for registration:- (i) there should be a legally existent entity, which can be registered; (ii) it should have a written instrument of its creation or written document evidencing its creation; (iii) all its objects should be charitable or religious in nature; (iv) its income and assets should be made applicable towards objects only, mentioned in the object clauses, and Rules and Regulations; (v) no part of its income should be distributable or distributed, directly or indirectly, to its members, directors or founders, related persons or relatives etc. claiming through them; and (vi) in case of dissolution, its net assets after meeting all its liabilities, should not be revertible or reverted to its founder, members, directors or donors etc., but used for the objects.
Section 12A(b) also requires that if income of a trust etc. in any previous year exceeds rupees fifty thousand before giving effect to provisions of section 11 and section 12, then its accounts are required to be audited by an accountant and his report in Form no. 10B (Annexe-2) has to be filed along with the return of income.
