https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=199062 The Bombay Public Trusts Act, 1950 treats a math as an institution for promoting Hindu religion with religious instruction or spiritual service to disciples, and a temple as a place of public religious worship. On the findings recorded, the Nasik establishment did not impart religious instruction or render spiritual service, and functioned only as an adjunct of the principal math. For a subordinate math, applicability of the Act depends on the situs and character of the principal math.
