Educational trust with receipts of Rs 65 lakh:
• If registered under 12A/12AB (or approved under 10(23C)(vi)), audit is required if total income (before exemptions) exceeds the basic exemption limit. Form 10BB (receipts below Rs 5 crore, no foreign contribution), filed one month before the ITR due date (30 September for 31 October).
• If relying on 10(23C)(iiiad) (educational institution with aggregate receipts up to Rs 5 crore, existing solely for education, not for profit), no registration, audit or 10B/10BB is needed for the exemption. But ITR-7 filing may still be required if income exceeds the exemption limit before the exemption.
• Choose the provision the trust relies on and comply accordingly.
