What is NGO Audit and ITR Filing?
NGO Audit is the examination of the organization’s financial records by a qualified Chartered Accountant (CA) to ensure that donations, grants, and funds have been used for charitable purposes only. If your NGO receives more than ₹2.5 lakh annually, audit is mandatory under the Income Tax Act.
ITR Filing for NGOs involves submitting Income Tax Return (Form ITR-7) to report the income, expenses, exemptions (under 12A/80G), and audit results for the financial year.
