Sevastack TeamLast updated: 11 Nov 2026

A trust, society or Section 8 company that takes domestic donations, foreign contributions and CSR grants has three sets of rules. Each fund must be kept apart, receipted correctly and reported on time. Sevastack keeps them as separate funds in one ledger and produces the statements from it. It is free to start.

FCRA is the Foreign Contribution (Regulation) Act, which governs foreign gifts. CSR is corporate social responsibility spending by companies, which they give to NGOs for specific projects.

How do you manage donors, FCRA and CSR funds together?

One ledger with separate funds, not three spreadsheets.

Donor CRM with 80G

PAN-validated donors, automatic 80G receipts and Form 10BD/10BE from the same donation records.

FCRA fund separation

Foreign gifts credit the FCRA receipt account and stay apart from domestic funds, so utilization can be shown per head.

CSR proposals and grants

Draft CSR proposals, track what each company funded and report utilization back against the grant.

Fund accounting

Corpus, restricted, project and FCRA money are tracked as separate funds. Receipts & Payments, Income & Expenditure and Balance Sheet come from the ledger.

Utilization certificates

Produce the utilization reports funders ask for from the project spending already recorded.

Read-only CA portal

Your auditor gets their own access to statements and exports instead of emailed spreadsheets.

Why one system for all three?

Donations, foreign contributions and CSR grants all land in the same bank statements and the same year-end accounts. When they live in separate tools, someone reconciles them by hand each March. Sevastack posts every fund to one ledger, so the donor receipts, FCRA reports, CSR utilization and financial statements agree. Confirm your specific filings with your CA.
