5. We heard the rival submission and relied on the documents available in
record. The assessee is a charitable trust and applied for registration u/s 12AA. The
ld. CIT(E) had not pointed out any lacuna related to the main object of the trust and
activity related main object. The genuineness of the assessee also is not in
question. The two issues must be settled during registration U/s 12AA which are
genuinity of trust & activities are related to main object of trust. The two limbs
must be considered during registration.Only mere receiving of the corpus fund and
rejection of application of FCRA should not be the ground for rejecting the
registration u/s 12AA. We respectfully relied on the order of jurisdictionalHigh
