Trust Registration (NGO)

Trust is a declaration of ownership of a property held by the owner in the name of someone else OR the transfer of property by the owner to another. Particularly, for the benefit of a third person along with or without himself.

There are two three entities in a trust: Settlor- The person creating the Trust; Trustee- the person to whom the property is transferred on trust and Beneficiary- the person for whose benefit the property is transferred. In India, majorly Trusts are registered in a form of a public charitable trust (not-for-profit entity) that can be established for any of the purposes like social service, education, healthcare, provision of facilities for recreation, and any other object of general public welfare.
