What is NGO Darpan?

NGO Darpan is an online platform of the Government of India associated with NITI Aayog for maintaining information relating to voluntary organisations and NGOs.

Eligible organisations can create their profile on the NGO Darpan portal and, subject to the applicable process, obtain an NGO Darpan Unique ID.

NGO Darpan registration should not be confused with the legal incorporation or registration of an NGO. A trust, society or Section 8 company generally needs to have its underlying legal existence and supporting documents in place before completing the relevant NGO Darpan process.

Important: NGO Darpan is not the same as NGO Registration

Trust Registration, Society Registration and Section 8 Company Registration establish the legal structure of an organisation. NGO Darpan is a separate online registration/profile process.

Constitutional documents applicable to the organisation.

Memorandum or constitutional documents where applicable.

NGO Darpan Registration Process

The following is a practical overview. The portal's current instructions should always be followed at the time of application.

Organisation Details

Collect the legal name and basic information of the NGO or voluntary organisation.

Contact Person

Enter the authorised contact person's details, mobile number and email address.

OTP Verification

Complete the applicable mobile and email verification process.

Complete Profile

Enter the required organisation, registration, activity and other profile information.

Upload / Verify Documents

Provide the documents and information required by the current portal process.

Portal Verification

The submitted information and documents may be subject to verification by the portal administrator.

Unique ID Process

After completion of the applicable verification process, the organisation can proceed with the Unique ID process as instructed by the portal.

Maintain Profile

Keep the organisation's information and profile updated as required.

NGO Darpan Profile and OTP Verification

The official NGO Darpan signup guidance requires the organisation name, contact person, valid mobile number and contact email. The official instructions state that an OTP is sent to the provided mobile number and email during signup.

Therefore, applicants should use active and accessible contact details and should retain access to the registered email and mobile number used during the registration process.

Use accurate organisation information

The organisation's legal name, registration details, PAN and other information should be entered carefully and consistently with the supporting documents.

NGO Darpan Unique ID

An NGO Darpan Unique ID is an identification associated with an organisation's NGO Darpan profile after the applicable registration and verification process.

The official NGO Darpan signup instructions explain that after a profile is 100% complete and the documents are verified, the applicant is informed by email about the next step for creation of the Unique ID.

Organisations should therefore distinguish between creating an NGO Darpan account/profile and the subsequent Unique ID creation process.

NGO Darpan and Government Grants

NGO Darpan has been developed in the context of providing an integrated platform for maintaining NGO information and facilitating interaction with Government Ministries and Departments.

Historical official NITI Aayog documentation describes the portal's development in connection with receiving and processing NGO grant applications and release of grants by Ministries.

Important:

NGO Darpan registration or obtaining a Unique ID does not automatically guarantee a government grant, funding, project approval or financial assistance. Each grant, scheme or department can have separate eligibility criteria, application procedures and documentation requirements.

NGO Funding and Compliance

NGOs may explore different lawful funding sources depending on their objects, legal structure and eligibility.

Government Schemes

Departmental schemes and grants may be available subject to individual eligibility requirements.

CSR Funding

Eligible organisations may explore CSR opportunities subject to applicable CSR rules and project eligibility.

Domestic Donations

Donations and contributions should be received and accounted for in accordance with applicable requirements.

Foreign Contribution

Foreign contribution is subject to a separate regulatory framework, including applicable FCRA requirements.

Depending on the organisation and project, other registrations, approvals, tax exemptions, CSR-related requirements and documentation may be relevant.

BBSR Services can assist organisations in reviewing the broader documentation required for their proposed activities.
