Trusts in Maharashtra are primarily governed by the Indian Trusts Act of 1882. To establish a trust, one must draft a Trust Deed, which outlines the trust's name, objectives, and details about the trustees. This deed must be signed and witnessed by at least two individuals. A minimum of two trustees is required to manage the trust.
While registration of the trust is not mandatory, it is highly recommended to register it with the Sub-Registrar of Assurances in your locality. The registration fees and stamp duty are determined based on the value of the trust's property.
To operate a bank account, the trust must obtain a Permanent Account Number (PAN) and can seek tax exemptions under Sections 12A and 80G of the Income Tax Act. After registration, trusts are obligated to comply with legal and tax regulations, including filing returns and maintaining accurate accounts.
