How is a Society formed and registered?
To form a Society, a minimum of seven members are required. A memorandum has to be made. The memorandum will provide for the name of the Society, the objects , names and addresses and occupation of the members of the committee. In addition, the bye-laws or rules regulating the conduct of the affairs of the Society also have to be made. The said memorandum and bye-laws have to be filed with the Registrar of Societies concerned by a member of the committee of the Society or any other person duly authorised by the Society. If the memorandum and bye-laws are in accordance with the legal requirements, then the same can be registered. The memorandum and bye-laws have to be printed or typewritten and have to be signed by the members. The registration charges are nominal.
