What is a Section 8 Company?

A Section 8 Company is a non-profit company formed under Section 8 of the Companies Act, 2013, for promoting commerce, art, science, sports, education, research, social welfare, religion, or charity.

It is the most credible NGO structure as it is regulated by the MCA and follows corporate governance standards. Unlike Trusts and Societies, it can operate pan-India without separate state registrations.

The company name does not include "Private Limited" or "Limited" and profits cannot be distributed among members.
