What is a Section 8 Company (NGO)?

A Section 8 Company is an entity registered under the Companies Act, 2013, with a non-profit objective. It's the most reliable and transparent legal structure for an NGO (Non-Governmental Organization) in India. The main purpose is to promote social welfare, arts, science, education, sports, or charity.

Unlike other companies, a Section 8 Company cannot use its profits to pay dividends to its members. Any income or profit earned must be used solely for achieving its non-profit objectives. This legal framework provides an NGO with a credible and trustworthy corporate identity, which helps in attracting grants, donations, and government funding.
