Questions, answered
Frequently asked questions
How many trustees are needed to form a trust?
A trust requires at least two trustees; there is no statutory upper limit, and the settlor can also act as a trustee.
Do I need 12A and 80G registration?
12A registration exempts the trust's income from tax, while 80G lets donors claim deductions. Both are optional but highly recommended for charitable trusts seeking donations.
