Understanding NGO Registration
If your heart is set on doing social good — whether it’s education, health, environment, or community welfare — an NGO registration gives your cause a legal identity. It helps you operate transparently, receive donations, own property, and earn the trust of supporters and authorities alike.
Key points:
• NGO means a non-government organisation — one that works for people, not for profit.
• Legal registration allows you to receive funds, own assets, and operate officially.
• It builds donor confidence and makes you eligible for government schemes and tax benefits.
• A registered NGO can sustain its mission in the long run — with structure, credibility, and clear accountability.

At LegalCliq, we make setting up your NGO a simple, guided process. You share your vision — we handle the paperwork, registration and compliance, so your focus stays on the cause you care about.
What we do:

The Step-by-Step Journey
We believe starting an NGO should be an inspiring experience, not a complicated one. Here’s how we make it seamless from start to finish:
Our process:
• Step 1: Discussion — We understand your mission and recommend the most suitable legal structure.
• Step 2: Documentation — Drafting of trust deed, MOA or by-laws, and collecting required details from members or trustees.
• Step 3: Filing — Submission to the concerned Registrar or Ministry and follow-up for quick approval.
• Step 4: Certification — Once approved, you receive your registration certificate.
• Step 5: Activation — We assist in opening your bank account, PAN, and guide you on tax exemptions and compliance.
What You’ll Need to Begin
A little preparation goes a long way. Having the right documents ready helps us register your NGO faster.
Checklist:
• Identity and address proof of all founders, trustees or members.
• Proposed name of the NGO and its core objectives or mission statement.
• Registered office proof — rent/lease agreement, ownership papers, or NOC.
• Draft governing documents — trust deed, MOA or by-laws with rules and objectives.
• List of governing body members with photos and contact details.
• If planning to accept foreign donations — FCRA registration details (if applicable).
Time & Cost Overview
We believe in clarity and honesty from day one. Here’s what you can expect in terms of time and expenses.
Details:
• Registration usually takes 2–4 weeks for Trusts or Societies, and slightly longer for Section 8 Companies.
• You’ll receive a detailed quotation — covering government fees and professional charges — before we begin.
• No hidden costs or surprise add-ons.
• We also brief you on recurring expenses like audits or annual filings so you can plan your NGO’s finances smartly.
