About DARPAN Registration
DARPAN is the NGO Partnership System portal run by NITI Aayog. It lets voluntary organisations and NGOs register, create a public profile and receive a Unique ID used by ministries and departments when releasing grants-in-aid.
Registration is free of government charge, but the details, PAN, and registration documents must be accurate; an approved profile improves visibility with government and CSR funders.
What is DARPAN Registration?
DARPAN registration is the online enrolment of an NGO (trust, society or Section 8 company) on the NITI Aayog portal, where it obtains a Unique ID and its profile is listed for government and donor use.
