Charitable trusts in India allow donors to direct funds toward specific charities and causes they support. It also drives lucrative income and estate tax benefits for contributors. For wealthy families, this may result in savings per year while, at the same time, leaving a positive mark on your community and world as a whole.
Charity is a voluntary help either in money or kind to the needy. Collective efforts are always more fruitful.
