FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
As per the revised tax exemption act, effective April 1, 2017, When you make donations above ₹500 to Little Heart Foundation, your donation amount will be eligible for 50% tax exemption under Section 80G of Income Tax Act. The exemption is calculated by reducing the donated amount from your taxable salary. For instance, /example, if your taxable income per year is ₹2,00,000 and you make a donation of ₹5,000 then your net taxable income will become ₹197,500. Your tax will now be calculated on this new amount basis the prevailing tax rates.
A minimum of ₹500 needs to be donated to avail tax exemption under IT sec 80 G. However, cash donations above ₹2,000 are not applicable for 80G certificates.
We generate the tax certificate within 3 days from the date of contribution made through online donations. Including the courier process, it takes 7 days for the exemption certificate to reach you. If you contribute offline it takes 7 to 10 days. However, we may not be able to provide you a duplicate receipt. But we can send you the Income Tax Exemption certificate copy.
To qualify for tax exemption on your donations, you need to obtain a 10BE. This can be done by filing your 80G claims for donations made during the Financial Year (FY).
For example: if you made donations between April 2023 and March 2024 (FY 2023-24), you will get your 10BE by 31st May 2024, provided you need to claim the 80G for these donations.
Please note that you cannot claim 80G for donations made between April 2022 and March 2023 (FY 2022-23) anymore as the window for claiming it has closed. However, you can still get the 10BEs for that year if you made 80G claims on or before 31st July 2023.
