Tax exemption is a legal deduction that lowers your total taxable income. Under various provisions of the Income Tax Act, 1961, you can gain partial or complete relief from taxes on specific portions of your income. Tax exemptions are offered by the government to encourage economic growth and support socially beneficial activities.
Under Section 80G of the Income Tax Act, 1961, donors can claim tax deductions for contributions made to eligible charitable organizations, provided the NGO is registered under the Act. You can claim this deduction by submitting the donation receipt and tax certificate issued by the foundation.
Section 80G allows taxpayers to claim a deduction from their gross total income for donations made to approved charitable entities. JBR Foundation is registered and approved under Section 80G, enabling donors to enjoy tax benefits.
Donations above ₹500 made to JBR Foundation are eligible for a 50% deduction from your taxable income under Section 80G of the Income Tax Act. Your contribution directly supports social initiatives while reducing your tax liability.
When you donate to JBR Foundation, 50% of the donated amount is subtracted from your net taxable income.
Example: If your taxable salary is ₹200,000 and you donate ₹5,000 to JBR Foundation, 50% of your donation (₹2,500) will be deducted from your taxable income. Your new taxable income will be ₹197,500, and your tax will be calculated based on this reduced amount.
To cover administrative and documentation costs, JBR Foundation requests a minimum contribution of ₹500 to issue an 80G tax exemption receipt.
The maximum limit depends on the donation category. In most standard cases, Section 80G deductions can be claimed up to a qualifying limit of 10% of your adjusted gross total income.
Yes. Your tax receipt will be sent via email within 3 working days of making the donation. Your official tax exemption certificate will follow via email within 5 working days.
