About this tool
Generate an 80G-ready donation receipt with donor details, amount in words, registration numbers and the deduction worked out.
A donation receipt is only useful to the donor if it carries the institution's 12A/12AB registration, its 80G approval number and validity, the PAN of both sides, the amount in words and the mode of payment — this generator assembles all of that in the standard Indian format. It also computes the deduction the donor can actually claim under section 80G of the Income-tax Act, 1961, applying the 10% of adjusted gross total income qualifying limit where the category carries one, and blocking the deduction for cash donations above Rs 2,000 under section 80G(5D) or for anyone taxed under the new regime. The receipt closes with the Form 10BD and Form 10BE commitment that every donee institution now has.

Applies the category rate and the qualifying limit rather than printing a flat 50% claim.
Spells lakh and crore correctly, including paise, so the receipt stands up to scrutiny.
12A/12AB, 80G approval and validity, URN, FCRA number and the Form 10BE undertaking are all built into the layout.
The name, address and PAN of the institution, its 12A/12AB registration and 80G approval numbers with validity, the donor's name, address and PAN, the receipt number and date, the amount in figures and words, and the mode of payment. Without the donor's PAN the institution cannot report the donation in Form 10BD or issue the Form 10BE certificate.
Only up to Rs 2,000. Section 80G(5D) disallows a deduction for any sum exceeding Rs 2,000 paid in cash, a threshold reduced from Rs 10,000 by the Finance Act, 2017. Cheque, demand draft, NEFT, UPI and card payments have no such cap.
For the categories that carry a limit, the donation eligible for deduction is capped at 10% of the donor's adjusted gross total income, and the 50% or 100% rate applies to that capped figure. So on an adjusted gross total income of Rs 8,00,000, a Rs 1,50,000 donation in the 50%-with-limit category yields a deduction of Rs 40,000, not Rs 75,000.
No. Section 115BAC(1A), the default regime, disallows most Chapter VI-A deductions including section 80G. The receipt is still valid and the institution must still report the donation, but the donor gets the deduction only if they opt for the old regime. Confirm the position with a chartered accountant before relying on it.
