Trust registration
A Trust Deed is used to register and regulate a Trust. The Trust deed is an official form of an NGO that contains legal backing and recognition, as well as the Trust’s aims, rules, and standards.
The trust deed will be written on stamp paper, and the value of the stamp paper will be determined by the amount of money deposited in the Trust by the members.
Both the settler and the trustees must sign the trust deed in the presence of two witnesses.
Constitution of the Trust
- The trust’s author, founder, and settlor
- Other trustees
- Managing trustee(s)
- The Board of Trustees shall have a quorum of no more than 21 members.
- There is a widespread belief that trusts do not have to pay taxes because they work to benefit the general public. However, this is not the case. Taxes must be paid by a trust, just like any other legal company. To be tax-exempt, a trust must receive certification from the Internal Revenue Service for exemptions such as Section 12 A, 80G, and others.
Types of Trust
- A Public Trust is one that has the general public as one of its beneficiaries. A Public Trust in India can also be separated into two types: Public Religious Trust and Public Charitable Trust.
- Private Trusteeship
- In India, a Private Trust is one that has individuals or families as beneficiaries. In addition, in India, a Private Trust can be classified into the following categories:
- A private trust with easily identifiable beneficiaries and required shares;
- A private trust in which neither the beneficiaries nor the required shares can be found easily.
Benefits
- The fundamental motivation for forming a Trust in India is to engage in charity activities while also receiving tax benefits. Non-Profit Organizations are another name for these charitable trusts.
- If a trust is founded in India, it must be a legal entity in order to benefit from all of the government’s trust-related benefits. All such entities must register under the Charitable Trust Act, which is mandated by federal law and the Indian Trust Act.
- In India, a Trust Deed is required to register a charitable trust. As a result, a Trust Deed is another name for a charitable registration.
- In India, the state and federal law departments provide a collection of assets for the common people and charitable organisations to handle. This asset collection technique greatly aids those donors who wish to lend assets to trusts, allowing trustees to anticipate receiving tax benefits.
