Nature of donations
Donations are voluntary contributions to support the Foundation’s charitable objects. They support programme delivery, which can include necessary administrative, compliance and logistics costs as permitted by law. Donations are accepted from Indian sources only (the Foundation is not FCRA-registered).
Receipt process
- Donate by UPI or bank transfer to the account named VISHAVABHARTIYA FOUNDATION.
- Submit the 80G receipt request form with your PAN and transaction reference.
- After the amount is matched in our bank account, a receipt is issued to your email.
80G benefit applies as per the Income Tax Act and the Foundation’s approval (provisional, AY 2026-27 to AY 2028-29). Cash donations above ₹2,000 are not eligible for deduction.
Incorrect transaction
If you donated a wrong amount, paid twice, or sent money to our account by mistake, contact us within 15 days with the transaction reference, date and amount: vishavabhartiya.foundation@gmail.com · +91 94236 32405.
Refund request process
Refund requests are reviewed case by case after verifying the transaction in our bank statement. Where a refund is approved, it is made only to the original source account. A refund is generally not possible once an 80G receipt has been issued and reported, unless the receipt is withdrawn as allowed by law. Payment gateway or bank charges, if any, may not be recoverable.
