Dear Experts 

We  are a public charitable  Trust NGO category,  we receive grants for projects.  One of the donor gave a grant for a project Rs. 20 lakhhs for 3 years for whihc we have given 80 G receiot in full 

we have spent only 15 lakhs  over the period of 3 years,  Donor is asking for return of the balance unspent portion. 

As we have issued 80 G for full amount and now he is asking for the return of unspent portion of 5 lakhs how to go about this

1) whether we can refuse return of the balance portion since we have also ready given 80 g for full amount in the first year itself

2) or whether there will be any tax implication if we refund the balance amount

Please advice

Reg,
