Society Registration
Society registration is the legal process through which individuals or groups form a society to pursue a common objective such as social welfare, education, healthcare, culture, or charitable activities. In India, societies are registered under the Societies Registration Act, 1860, which grants legal status, recognition, and credibility. A registered society can open bank accounts, own property, enter contracts, and may qualify for tax benefits. Registration also ensures transparency through proper governance, accounting, and annual compliance. With expert and affordable online society registration services, BizFormation India helps NGOs and associations complete the process smoothly and operate legally without obstacles.
