Executive summary

A Trust is a legal arrangement where trustees hold and manage assets for defined beneficiaries according to the terms of a Trust Deed. The Deed is the founding document, it must be precise, comprehensive, and registered. DHULL handles every aspect: purpose assessment, deed drafting customised to your specific objectives, Sub-Registrar registration, PAN application, and 12A/80G registration for charitable trusts.
