12 March 2012 AO has no power to cancel registration. However, even after the grant of registration of the trust if it is found to be not carrying out its activity in accordance with the objects of the trust, and making violation of any of the provisions of trust deed or Act, then, CIT can use his/her powers given to him/her u/s 12AA (3) to cancel the registration in accordance with law.
