05 December 2010 Bank can open account by submitting Trust Deed along with name address and proof of trustees.
It advisable to create a trust if the purpose is relief of poor otherwise create AOP/BOI.
Tax implications under I.T. depends on sharing ratio.
If sharing ratio is determinable and no one has income (excluding income from trust)exceeding maximum amount which is not chargeable to tax, then income of AOP/BOI is shall be liable to tax as individual.
If anyone has income exceeding maximum amount not chargeable to tax, entire income shall be liable to tax at maximum marginal rate.
If anyone is liable to tax at the rate exceeding MMR then share of such assesse liable to tax at that maximum rate and balance is taxable at MMR.
MMR means 30%.
If sharing ratio is indeterminate and no one is liable to tax exceeding MMR, then entire income shall be liable to tax at MMR otherwise at that rate exceeding MMR.
