Exemption from foreign contribution regulation: wholly government owned, CAG audited organisations are excluded from the Act's operation. The Central Government exempts organisations (other than political parties) constituted by or under Central or State Acts or by administrative/executive orders, wholly government owned and compulsorily audited by the Comptroller and Auditor General or its agencies, from the operation of the Foreign Contribution (Regulation) Act, 2010; the exemption applies to all provisions of the Act, takes effect from publication, and supersedes the earlier government notification.
