12A Registration is an important certification under the Income Tax Act, 1961, that allows NGOs, trusts, societies, and Section 8 companies to claim exemption from income tax on their surplus income. Without 12A registration, an NGO is required to pay tax like a normal entity, even if the income is used for charitable purposes.

By obtaining 12A Registration, the income of the organization becomes tax-exempt, enabling it to utilize maximum funds for social, charitable, educational, religious, or welfare activities. This registration also increases the credibility of the NGO and is often required while applying for government grants, CSR funding, and donor support.
