FCRA returns,filed right and on time.

Every FCRA-registered organisation files an annual return (FC-4) by 31 December, with audited accounts of foreign funds. The format was expanded in 2026 to include ultimate donors, activity and location-wise use and separate administrative costs. We prepare, certify and file it.
