Frequently asked questions

What is NGO DARPAN?

NGO DARPAN is an online platform operated by NITI Aayog for maintaining information relating to NGOs and voluntary organisations.

Is DARPAN registration the same as NGO registration?

No.

NGO formation/registration establishes the legal entity. DARPAN registration is a separate online registration/profile process.

Who can register on NGO DARPAN?

Eligible NGOs and voluntary organisations, including entities such as trusts, societies and Section 8 companies, may use the portal subject to the applicable requirements.

Is NGO DARPAN registration mandatory?

The requirement depends on the organisation’s activities and applicable regulations. Certain current regulatory provisions specifically require NPOs to register their details on the DARPAN portal.

What details are required to create a DARPAN account?

The official signup guide asks for the NGO/VO name, contact person, mobile number, email address and security verification, with OTP verification for the submitted mobile/email details.

Can a new NGO register directly on DARPAN?

DARPAN should not be presented as the process for legally incorporating an NGO. The organisation’s underlying legal status and applicable registration should be established separately.

Can CA India help with DARPAN registration?

Yes. CA India can assist with understanding the requirements, preparing information/documents and navigating the online DARPAN registration process.
