CAN AOP OBTAIN REGISTRATION U/S 12A

Dear Ma'am/Sir's I have a client which is basically Society registered under Society Act and running schools. While they have pan card with 4th digit as 'A'. now my query as can we apply form 10A for 12A Registration or we have to obtain correct pan card as a trust with 4th digit as 'T' . Thanks

Yes. Society can obtain registration under section 12A. It is not necessary to have 4th digit "T" in PAN.
