Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies whether an educational society with gross receipts under one crore must register under Section 12AA to claim tax exemption. It confirms that simply filing an Income Tax Return (ITR) does not grant automatic exemption. Without 12AA registration, the society will be taxed as an Association of Persons (AOP) at the highest slab rate. Therefore, obtaining 12AA registration is mandatory to claim tax exemption, even when filing ITR 7 under section 139(4d).

Not required
If we file ITR as Educational society, will we get automatic exemption??
No automatic exemption. without registration it will be treated as AOP and tax at maximum slab rate.
Means registration u/s 12 AA is mandatory to claim exemption????

Yes to claim exemption in ITR you have to take registration u/s 12AA.

If we file ITR 7 under sec 139(4d) and gross receipts are less than 1 crore ,even then required to get registered under sec 12AA??????
To claim exemption registration is required
