Kalpavriksha donations are now eligible for tax rebate under Section 80G. This makes it a win-win as you can now help elevate the environment around you, and earn tax benefits as well.
These are exciting times, as we get a new shot in the arm, to make renewed efforts towards our target of planting a million+ trees, and doing our bit to elevate the environment around us.
What is Section 80G of Income Tax Act?
Section 80G is a facility available in the Income Tax Act which allows taxpayers to claim deductions for various contributions made as donations. The deduction under the Act is available for contributions made to the specified relief funds and charitable institutions. Not all charitable donations are eligible for deduction under Section 80G. Only donations made to the prescribed funds can qualify as a deduction. The Government of India introduced Section 80G deduction to encourage people to donate. The Government, by providing income tax relief, intends to motivate people to make more donations to worthy causes.
Under Section 80G, the amount donated is allowed to be claimed as a deduction at the time of filing the assessee’s income tax return. Deduction under Section 80G can be claimed by individuals, partnership firms, HUF, company and other types of taxpayers, irrespective of the type of income earned.
