For formation of Trust you require minimum Rs.20,000/- including drafting and registration.
80G & 12A registration is only after the Trust is registered. Generally 12A application can be filed immediately after formation of trust but 80G is not permitted immediately as for 80G the department need to see the performance. Generally 80G is allowed after 2/3 years on submission of Audited Balance Sheet and other relevant details
