Section 8
What being a Section 8 company means
Section 8 companies are licensed by the Central Government to promote objects such as science, education, research and social welfare. They may earn money but can never distribute profit.
- No dividends, ever. All income and property serve the foundation's objects only.
- Members and directors are paid only for real work: out-of-pocket expenses, and reasonable payment for services actually rendered, approved by the board.
- Fees for training and consultancy are allowed, and are used for our objects.
- If the foundation ever closes, its assets go to another Section 8 company with similar objects, never to members.
- Changes to our Memorandum or Articles of Association need prior approval from the Registrar.
- Every year we hold board meetings and an Annual General Meeting, have our accounts audited, and file them with the Ministry of Corporate Affairs.
