Section 2(15) IT Act | Insurance Payments for Medical Relief Do Not Invalidate Charitable Exemption : ITAT Delhi
The ITAT Delhi has ruled that charitable hospitals receiving payments from insurance companies remain eligible for tax exemption under Section 2(15) if their primary purpose is medical relief. This clarifies a critical ambiguity for nonprofit healthcare providers relying on third-party reimbursements, affirming that revenue source does not override charitable intent when services remain non-profit and publicly oriented.
