What it is and how we handle it

Section 8 companies are the most credible structure for non-profits that want to receive CSR funds, grants and donations from companies. They are governed by the Companies Act, file annual returns like any company and have clear rules on governance.

Compared with a trust or society, a Section 8 company has more compliance but better governance and is preferred by corporate donors. Its name typically ends with words like Foundation, Forum, Association or Council instead of Limited.

We draft objects that match your activities and future funding, file the incorporation and licence through SPICe+, and then handle 12A and 80G registration, CSR-1 so companies can fund you, and annual compliance.

FAQs

Common questions for Section 8 Company Registration in Illinois.

Search FAQs
6 results.
Is a Section 8 company tax-exempt automatically?
No. It must apply separately for registration under Section 12A/12AB (provisional for three years at first) and for 80G so donors can claim a deduction.
Section 8 company, trust or society — which is better?
A trust is the simplest to set up, a society suits membership bodies, and a Section 8 company has the most compliance but the strongest governance and credibility with corporate and foreign donors.
Can a Section 8 company pay salaries?
Yes. It can pay reasonable salaries to employees, and directors in some cases, for services actually rendered. It can't distribute profits or dividends to members.
Can it receive CSR funds?
Yes, after registering on the MCA portal in Form CSR-1, which requires 12A and 80G registration.
What is the time difference between Illinois and India?
Most of Illinois is on Central time, so it runs behind India by 10.5 hours in summer and 11.5 hours in winter. We work mostly over WhatsApp and email, so you don't need to match Indian office hours.
Can I get Section 8 Company Registration done while living in Illinois?
Yes. This is India-side work, so it is done online and you don't need to travel. If a document must be attested abroad, we tell you upfront whether a notary, a state apostille or an Indian consulate is needed.
