Currency and eligibility
Contributions are accepted in Indian rupees from Indian sources only. PAHAL does not accept foreign contributions through this website.
Receipts
A receipt is emailed automatically once a payment is confirmed. Relief under Section 80G is claimed on a receipt only where PAHAL’s 80G registration number and PAN have been recorded.
Refunds
Donations are voluntary and are generally not refundable. If a payment was made in error, duplicated, or taken for an incorrect amount, contact PAHAL within seven days and the matter will be reviewed. Approved refunds are returned to the original payment method.
How funds are used
Unrestricted donations are applied where the need is greatest. Restricted donations are applied only to the purpose given, and only where PAHAL can track and report that purpose separately.
This policy is a working draft and should be reviewed by PAHAL’s legal adviser before the site goes live.
