⚙️ What is a Section 8 Company / NGO?
A Section 8 Company is a legal entity formed to promote non-profit objectives. Unlike private companies, it cannot distribute profits to its members — instead, any surplus is reinvested in the organization’s activities.
It is governed by the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA) and offers benefits such as legal recognition, tax exemptions, and eligibility for government grants or CSR funds.
