How to use this calendar

Build the NGO calendar around structure, tax approval and FCRA status.

Use this calendar where an Indian Section 8 company, charitable trust or society needs a working view of registrar, Income Tax, GST, FCRA and labour due dates. It separates the company registrar layer from trust or society style compliance because a Section 8 company carries MCA filings while a trust or society usually works through tax, registrar, GST, FCRA and labour triggers.

Start with the organization profile and entity type, then select 12A/12AB, 80G, TDS, GST, FCRA and labour obligations only where they actually apply. The result keeps Form 10B or 10BB, ITR-7, Form 10BD, FC-4, GST, TDS, PF/ESI and Section 8 MCA reminders in one reviewable list.

  1. 1Enter the NGO name, financial year, state and registration or incorporation date.
  2. 2Pick Section 8 company, charitable trust or society so the calendar uses the right base path.
  3. 3Select 12A/12AB, 80G, TDS and GST only where the NGO has those registrations or obligations.
  4. 4Add FCRA only where the NGO is registered to receive foreign contribution.
  5. 5Generate the calendar, filter the filing layers, save the PDF and verify dates before filing.

FAQ

What is the due date for Form 10BD for NGOs?

Form 10BD, the annual donation statement for 80G-approved entities, is ordinarily due by 31 May after the relevant financial year ends.

What is the due date for FC-4 under FCRA?

Form FC-4, the FCRA annual return, is ordinarily due by 31 December after the relevant financial year. Select FCRA only if the NGO is actually registered.

What annual filings apply to a Section 8 company?

A Section 8 company generally tracks AOC-4, MGT-7, ADT-1, board meetings and DIR-3 KYC Web cycle checks, along with tax, GST, TDS, labour and FCRA filings where applicable.

When do 12AB-registered NGOs file Form 10B or 10BB and ITR-7?

For many audited exempt entities, Form 10B or 10BB is ordinarily due before the return, and ITR-7 is ordinarily due by 31 October, subject to extensions and special cases.

Does a trust or society get MCA company filings here?

No. The tool adds the MCA company layer for Section 8 companies. Trusts and societies stay on the NGO tax, GST, FCRA, labour and state-law review path.

Does this replace CA, CS or NGO counsel review?

No. Use it as a planning checklist. NGO filings can change with approvals, turnover, foreign contribution, donor reporting, state law and current extensions.
