Yes. Needs to be filed before the due date under section 139(1).

You're absolutely right to seek clarity — there's often confusion between Section 11(1)(a)/(b) and Section 11(2) in the context of Form 10.
✅ Clarification on Form 10 Requirement
Section 11(1)(a)/(b):
A charitable/religious trust can accumulate up to 15% of its income without any conditions or declarations.
👉 No need to file Form 10 for this accumulation.
Section 11(2):
If the trust wants to accumulate income beyond 15% (for specific purposes to be spent over up to 5 years),
👉 Form 10 is compulsorily required to be filed with the Assessing Officer (electronically) before the due date under Section 139(1).
🔍 Your Question:
"If a trust claims exemption under clause (2) of Section 11(1), is Form 10 required?"
If by "clause (2) of 11(1)" you actually mean Section 11(2) — then yes, Form 10 is required.
If you mean Section 11(1)(a)/(b) — where the trust is simply applying income and accumulating up to 15% — then no Form 10 is required.
