Eligibility for exemption To be eligible for exemption under Section 10(23C)(iiiad), an educational institution must meet certain criteria. First and foremost, it must be approved by the government of India. Additionally, the institution must be a non-profit organization, which means that its primary objective must be the promotion of education rather than making profits. 12A registration and 10B and 10BB not required.
The exemption under Section 10(23C)(iiiad) of the Income Tax Act, 1961, can cover pre-school education, provided the institution meets the following criteria:
Educational Purpose: The pre-school must exist solely for educational purposes. As long as the institution's primary objective is to impart education and it does not operate for profit, it can qualify for the exemption.
Not-for-Profit: The institution should not have a profit motive. Any surplus generated should be used towards educational purposes and should not be distributed to the members or stakeholders of the institution.
Gross Receipts Threshold: The annual gross receipts of the pre-school should not exceed ₹5 crore (₹50 million). If the receipts exceed this threshold, the institution would need to apply for exemption under a different subsection.
Pre-School Education: Pre-school education is considered part of the broader educational activities covered by this section. There is no specific exclusion for pre-schools, so they are eligible if they meet the criteria.
In summary, pre-schools that operate on a not-for-profit basis and meet the other conditions of Section 10(23C)(iiiad) can claim the income tax exemption.
