Charitable, Religious and Hospitality & Rehabilitation institutions can be formed by executing a Trust Deed. Trust deed is executed between the settlor and the trustees. A settlor is a person who creates the trust for some charitable or religious or hospitality & rehabilitation purposes. Whereas the trustees are the people who manage the trust. The settlor generally appoints the trustees who can effectively run and work according to the objects of the trust.
Under trust deed, the settlor transfers the identifiable property to the trustees and makes it obligatory for the trustees to work and manage the trust as per the terms and conditions specified in the trust deed.
Trust Deeds can form charitable, religious, hospitality institutions; settlor appoints trustees; trust properties specified; trustees manage funds efficiently; powers and responsibilities detailed; accounts and audit requirements outlined. In case of winding up, assets are transferred to similar trust with permission.
