Frequently Asked Questions
How does the payment process work? Is it secure?
Once you have submitted your information, your payment will be processed by our secure payment processing service. The data is transferred to our payment service provider and processed. One-time donations through cheques will be processed on the next working day of receipt of the pledge form. In the case of monthly donations, your first donation will be processed immediately. Whereas the subsequent monthly donations will be processed between the 10th and 15th of each month.
What are the tax benefits of donating to RDT?
For a one-time donation, an acknowledgement will be sent immediately and a receipt-cum-Tax Exemption Certificate will be sent in the fifth month of the following financial year. For regular monthly donations, it will be sent in the fifth month of the following financial year. All donations made to Rural Development Trust are exempted under section 80G of the Income Tax Act. This means that 50% of your donation amount is eligible for tax exemption. Please use the RDT Tax Exemption Receipt to claim this exemption when filing your Income Tax returns.
