Renewal of charitable registration is confined to examining the charitable nature of the objects, genuineness of activities and material legal compliance, not assessment-stage questions of receipts, profitability, income application, accumulation or annual exemption. The proviso to charitable purpose applies only to advancement of an object of general public utility, not to specific charitable limbs such as education, medical relief, yoga, food distribution and environmental preservation; ancillary receipts do not alone negate charitable character. Net presentation of surplus or deficit, where audited schedules disclose gross receipts and expenditure, is not incorrect information without evidence of deliberate misrepresentation. Predetermined adverse conclusions before notice breach natural justice. Consequently, renewal of registration and charitable-donation approval were directed to be granted.
