What is Trust Registration?

A Trust is a legal arrangement where an owner (Settlor) transfers property to a Trustee for the benefit of a third party (Beneficiary). In India, trusts are primarily governed by the Indian Trusts Act, 1882.

There are two main types: Charitable Trusts (formed for public good like education, medical aid, or relief of the poor) and Private Trusts (formed for managing family inheritance and wealth). Registering a trust provides it with legal persona, allowing it to hold property, open bank accounts, and claim tax exemptions.

Benefits of Registering a Trust

Build a formal structure for your social or private inheritance goals.

Legal Validity

A registered trust deed is a permanent legal record that prevents future disputes over property management or inheritance.

Income Tax Benefits

Charitable trusts can apply for 12A & 80G registrations to provide tax-free income and tax deductions to their donors.

Asset Protection

Ensures that the trust assets are used exclusively for their intended purpose, shielded from personal creditors of the trustees.

Prerequisites for Formation

Key requirements to begin the registration:

  • Trustees: Minimum of two individuals are required to act as trustees.
  • Clear Objectives: Defined charitable or religious goals for public trusts.
  • Corpus Fund: A nominal starting fund to initialize the trust's activities.

Documents Required

  • KYC: PAN Card & Aadhaar of the Settlor and all the Trustees.
  • Office Proof: Utility bill/Rent Agreement + NOC for the registered address.
  • Witnesses: KYC and presence of two witnesses during the registration.
  • Trust Deed: Detailed document drafted by our legal experts covering all bylaws.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. Can a Trust be revoked or canceled later?
This depends entirely on the clauses in the Trust Deed. Public charitable trusts are typically irrevocable to maintain tax-exempt status. Private trusts can be made revocable or irrevocable as per the Settlor's wish.
2. How many Trustees do I really need?
A minimum of two trustees are legally required to form and register a trust. While there is no rigid upper limit, most trusts maintain a manageable board of 5 to 9 trustees.
3. Is my physical presence mandatory at the Sub-Registrar office?
Yes, currently in India, the physical presence of the Settlor and two witnesses is mandatory for the registration of the trust deed. Our team will coordinate the appointment for a smooth visit.
