    This decision will help a lot of trusts whose registration were denied because they have not carried out any charitable activity as mentioned in the Trust Deed. While the Trusts are in the initial stage how can one expect to fulfill the objects immediately. They approach the CIT for grant of exemption under section 12A and deduction under section 80G for the donors on the strength of the objects of the Trust. They should be given some time to collect donations and carry out the charitable activities. Trusts are are subject to audit and as they are having PAN they have to file returns and if anything is found wrong the Department can cancel the registration granted at any time even with retrospective effect, I believe. Let us hope that in future registration will not be denied at the initial stage itself.
