There are some judgments directing that corpus donation, being capital receipt is not taxable in the hands of unregistered trusts also. But all such judgments are issued before amendment made in section 11(1)(d). The judgments issued after this amendment such as judgment of ITAT Chennai in case of Ramsahaimal Sahuwala & Sons Charitable Trust Vs ACIT (ITAT Chennai) ITA No. 53 to 61/Chny/2023 held that corpus donation is income in the hands of unregistered trusts.
