Approval for donor deduction requires statutory compliance with eligibility conditions, reporting and timelines, affecting charitable organisations' donor benefits.
Approval for donations under section 133(1)(b)(ii) requires application by a registered non-profit or specified person and satisfaction of seven conditions concerning charitable purpose, non-discrimination, limits on religious-nature expenditure, asset-use restrictions, regular accounts, prescribed statements and donor certificates. The Principal Commissioner or Commissioner has inquiry powers and fixed decision timelines; approvals have defined validity periods. Key operational elements-definitions, calculation rules for religious expenditure, prescribed forms and Schedule contents-are left to subordinate prescription and are not specified in the text.
