Since April 1, 2021, it is mandatory for all NGOs (Trusts, Societies, and Section 8 Companies) that wish to receive CSR funding from corporates to register with the Central Government by filing Form CSR-1 electronically. This generates a unique CSR Registration Number.
Without a valid CSR-1 registration, an NGO cannot accept CSR donations or undertake CSR projects from companies.
Registration listed on the MCA portal enhances the credibility and transparency of the NGO.
Ensures compliance with the provisions of the Companies Act, 2013, avoiding legal issues for both the donor and receiver.
Helps the government and corporates track CSR spending and the impact of social welfare projects.
Gather registration proofs and ensure PAN and DSC are ready.
Fill the e-form CSR-1 with details of the entity and its office bearers.
The form must be digitally signed by the entity and verified by a practicing CA/CS/CMA.
Upload the form on the MCA portal. A CSR Registration Number is generated automatically.
We provide a dedicated Startup Advisor, monthly compliance status reports, and ensure 100% accurate filing at the lowest fees in the market.
