What is a Society?
A Society is a legally recognized non-profit organization formed by a group of individuals to promote charitable, educational, cultural, social, or religious activities. Society Registration under the Societies Registration Act, 1860, gives your organization a legal identity, enabling it to receive funds, own property, and operate smoothly.
A Society is a legal entity formed by a group of individuals united for promoting:
- Charitable activities
- Education & literacy programs
- Cultural & social welfare initiatives
- Sports, art, or science development
- Religious or philanthropic causes
Registered under the West Bengal Societies Registration Act, 1961, a society gains legal recognition to operate transparently and receive funding.
