NGOs Registration, Assessment and Governance Advisory
NGOs Registration, Assessment and Governance Advisory
For NGOs, trusts, and societies, robust registration, governance, and regulatory compliance are essential for credibility and sustainable operations. Weak governance or non-compliance can undermine donor confidence and create operational or legal challenges.
Independent advisory on registration, governance assessment, and compliance allows NGOs to establish proper structures, adhere to statutory requirements, and implement transparent systems that promote accountability and trust with donors and stakeholders. Singh Gulati & Associates provides guidance to ensure organizations are set up for long-term success while maintaining full regulatory alignment.
About This Service
Our NGO registration and governance advisory services support both new and existing organizations in establishing a strong legal and compliance foundation. We assist with registrations under the Societies Act, Trust Act, Section 8 Companies Act, and related tax exemptions under 12A/80G of the Income Tax Act.
We conduct organizational assessments to evaluate governance structures, board effectiveness, financial systems, and compliance with statutory obligations. These reviews help NGOs identify improvement areas and strengthen institutional credibility.
Our governance advisory includes developing internal policies, risk management frameworks, and compliance mechanisms aligned with donor, regulatory, and community expectations. This ensures NGOs operate with transparency, accountability, and efficiency.
Through our comprehensive advisory, we enable NGOs to gain donor confidence, access funding, and operate credibly while building sustainable, impact-driven institutions.
