These changes take effect from October 1, 2024, and focus on key modifications to Forms 10A and 10AB, which are crucial for registration under sections 12A and 80G of the Income-tax Act, primarily for charitable institutions, trusts, and non-profit organizations.

Key Changes:

  1. Removal of references to certain clauses and figures in the headings of Forms 10A and 10AB.

The explanatory memorandum clarifies that these changes will not adversely impact any individual or entity due to their retrospective application.
