Difference Between NGO and NPO in India | Meaning, Purpose

Are you planning to start a social initiative or charitable organization in India? Understanding the difference between an NGO (Non-Governmental Organization) and an NPO (Non-Profit Organization) is crucial before registration and compliance.

An NGO is a voluntary organization that works for social welfare, humanitarian aid, environmental protection, or education. NGOs can operate independently from the government and focus on social development programs. Common legal forms include Trusts, Societies, or Section 8 Companies.

On the other hand, an NPO is a legally registered organization that functions without the motive of profit, but the surplus income is reinvested into the organization. NPOs can work across education, healthcare, arts, culture, religion, or community welfare, and are mostly registered under Society Act or Companies Act Section 8.

Understanding the difference ensures proper registration, tax exemption benefits (12A, 80G), and eligibility for government or CSR funding.
