Donate and Save Taxes
Donating to a cause — whether it’s charity, disaster relief, or social impact — is a meaningful way to contribute to a better India. These contributions empower NGOs and organizations to continue their important work.
To encourage such giving, the Income Tax Department offers tax benefits on eligible donations.
