Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies the rules around company donations to political parties. Companies can claim donations up to 100% of their total taxable income, provided it doesn't exceed 7.5% of their average net profit over three years. Acceptable payment methods include cheques, demand drafts, electronic transfers, or pay orders directly to the party's bank account. It's important to note that these donations do not qualify for 80G tax deductions.

Companies can claim up to 100% of their donation as long as it is less than their total taxable income. The only acceptable modes of payment include cheques, demand draft, electronic transfer, or a pay order towards the bank account of the political party.

However, Companies Act 2013 states that the contribution cannot be more than 7.5% of their annual net profit (average of 3 years).

 

This does not qualify for 80G deduction.
