24 February 2025 There is no specific maximum number of managing trustees prescribed by the Indian Trusts Act or other central laws governing trusts in India. The number of trustees, including managing trustees, is typically determined by the trust deed, which outlines the minimum and maximum number of trustees allowed for a particular trust. The number of managing trustees is often decided based on the trust's objectives and operational needs. For example, a trust might have one managing trustee for simplicity or multiple managing trustees for better management and decision-making.
