What is the difference between public and private trust?
Public trusts serve the general public, while private trusts benefit a specific group or individual. The type impacts structure, taxation, and future donations.

The process usually takes 10–15 working days depending on state and documentation accuracy. We streamline it for timely and smooth registration.
Is it mandatory to register a trust?
Yes, if you want legal recognition, tax benefits, and the ability to own property or receive grants. Unregistered trusts have limited credibility and legal rights.
Can trust registration be done online?
While parts of the process can be assisted online, physical document submission and signatures are still required at the registrar office in most states.
