Q. > Please Help: investment in shares by an educational trust availing exemption u/s 11
can an educational trust availing exemption u/s 11 invest its money in shares or trade in shares fulfilling the exemption conditions? if yes, plz give strong proof or cite any judgement..

Dear Rajat,
A education trust availing exemption u/s 11 is allowed to make inventment or deposit the money in forms or modes as specified in Section 11 (5).[ Refer Section 11 (2) (b)of Income Tax Act, 1961.] Further, Section 11 (5) (vii) of Income Tax Act, 1961 permits investment or deposit in PUBLIC SECTOR COMPANY.
Thus, the educational trust can make inventment or deposit in PUBLIC SECTOR COMPANY. However, the educational trust is NOT PERMITTED to trade in shares.

Educational trust are not allowed to trade in shares because the funds may be diverted for other purpose. The funds which were to be used for educational purpose may be used for speculation.
