    Our team is committed to effective educational reforms and to ensuring that your contribution makes a real difference.

    We believe in equity, excellence, and agency and, to this end, we strive to provide quality education for every child. We have been able to improve teaching and learning in classrooms, establish sustainable and data-driven monitoring systems, and develop local leaders to drive continuous improvement.

    For example, in the state of Tripura, if the government spends INR 70 lakhs (USD 84K) on 10 schools which have a total student population of 1200, an additional INR 1.75 lakhs (USD 2K) to support our team from you leads to significant enhancements such as better teaching methods, robust monitoring mechanisms, and trained local system leaders.

    Your donation is an investment in the future, helping us create an equitable and effective education system. Join us in transforming education and making a good school for every child across India.

    As an organisation registered under Section 12A and Section 80G of the Income Tax Act, Adhyayan Foundation is required to collect your name, address, email, phone number and PAN. This information helps us to issue valid 80G tax-deduction receipts, file the annual form 10BD and issue form 10BE as per Rule 18AB. Email and phone number are essential so we can send the 80G receipt shortly after donation and form 10BE after the financial year ends.

    For domestic donations:

    Domestic donations made to Adhyayan Foundation (via Razorpay, Give.do and bank transfer) are eligible for tax benefits under Section 80G of the Income Tax Act, 1961. Since Adhyayan Foundation holds a valid 80G certification as per Rule 11AA, donors are entitled to a 50% deduction on the amount donated, subject to the conditions specified under Section 80G(1) and the overall limit under Section 80G(4).

    For foreign donations:

    Donations made through the link for foreign donations are on the Jupiter 360 Foundation portal, a 501(c)(3) organisation and Adhyayan Foundation’s fiscal sponsor.

Only US taxpayers and US citizens are eligible for tax deductions in accordance with Internal Revenue Service (IRS) rules and regulations. If you require a contemporaneous written acknowledgment for donations above $250 to substantiate your contribution for the IRS, please write to us at ea_ceo@adhyayanfoundation.org.

    For domestic donations:

    When you make a donation through Razorpay, an instant payment receipt confirming your donation is generated and sent to you directly by Razorpay. This receipt and your personal details are then used by our Finance team to issue you a 10BE form after the financial year ends (mid-June), which can be used by you for tax deduction while filing your income tax returns.

    The Jupiter360 Foundation, Adhyayan Foundation’s fiscal sponsor for receiving foreign contributions, is a 501(c)(3) organisation, EIN 87-2605741.

Upon making a contribution, a donation receipt is issued by Jupiter360 instantly or within the same working day.

The Foundation issues the Form 10BE certificates to all donors by 15th of June for the earlier finance year, via email.
