Income-tax Deduction from 1 April 2026

For tax years beginning on or after 1 April 2026, the Income-tax Act, 2025 applies. Donation deductions are governed by Section 133. A qualifying Chief Minister's Relief Fund or Lieutenant Governor's Relief Fund falls within the category for deduction of the whole eligible donation, where the statutory conditions are satisfied.

Section 133Current donation-deduction provision.
Whole eligible donationFor a qualifying CM/LG Relief Fund.
₹2,000 cash limitCash donations above this amount do not qualify.

Conditions for a Qualifying Chief Minister Relief Fund

Section 133(1)(a)(xv) requires that the fund be the only fund of its kind established in the State or Union territory, be under the overall control of the Chief Secretary or the Department of Finance of that State or Union territory, and be administered in the manner specified by the State Government or Lieutenant Governor.

Cash Donation Rule

Section 133(5) provides that where a donation exceeds ₹2,000, deduction is available only if the contribution is made by a mode other than cash. A donor intending to claim the deduction should use an authorised banking or electronic payment mode and keep the receipt and payment confirmation.

Default New Tax Regime

Section 133 forms part of Chapter VIII of the Income-tax Act, 2025. Under Section 202, individuals, HUFs and specified other persons are generally taxed under the default new tax regime unless the prescribed option is exercised. That regime generally computes total income without most Chapter VIII deductions except those expressly preserved.

Return-filing point: a donation can satisfy Section 133 but still be unavailable as a deduction to a taxpayer using the default Section 202 regime. Check the tax regime applicable to the return before claiming the amount.

Additional HDFC account previously publicised

A 2022 report based on an official government communique also publicised HDFC Bank account number 50200044568563 for donations to the Himachal Pradesh Chief Minister's Relief Fund. Because a current official banking page confirming this account was not located during this update, it is not presented here as the primary payment instruction.

How to Claim an Eligible Donation

Legacy Section 80G Position

For periods governed by the Income-tax Act, 1961, Himachal Pradesh Government material stated that contributions to the Chief Minister's Relief Fund were fully eligible under Section 80G.
