26 February 2016 Society registration is managed by State Governments. Therefore, the application for registration of society must be made to the concerned authority in the State, in which the registered office of the Society will be situated.

To register a Society, the founding members must first agree on a name for the Society and prepare the Memorandum and Rules and Regulations of the Society.

Society Registration – Name Selection

While choosing a name for the society, it is important to remember that as per Societies Act, 1860, similar or identical name of an existing registered society is not permitted. Further the proposed name for the society must also not suggest patronage of the Government of India or any State Government or attract the provisions of Emblem and Names Act, 1950.

Memorandum of a Society

1)The Memorandum of the Society and the Rules and Regulations of the Society must then be signed by each of the founding members, witnessed by an Oath Commissioner, Notary Public, Gazetted Officer, Advocate, Chartered Accountant or Magistrate 1st Class with their official stamp and complete address.

2)The following documents must be prepared, signed and submitted for Society Registration:

a)Covering letter requesting registration of the Society, signed by all founding members.
b)Memorandum of Association of the Society in duplicate along with a certified copy.
c)Rules and Regulations of the Society in duplicate along with a duplicate, duly signed by the founding members.
d)Affidavit sworn by the President or Secretary of the Society stating relationship between the subscribers.
e)Address proof for the registered office of the Society and No-Objection Certificate from the Landlord.
f)The signed Memorandum and Rules and Regulations must then be filed with the concerned Registrar of Societies in the State with the prescribed fee.

If the Registrar is satisfied with application for Society Registration, the Registrar would certify to deem the Society to be registered.
