Section 16 FCRA Renewal Refusal Must Observe Natural Justice | FCRA Certificate Renewal : Calcutta HC
The High Court set aside the July 2026 order denying renewal of a foreign contribution registration, finding the authority failed to record a satisfaction of mind and breached natural-justice principles. It ordered a fresh hearing, underscoring that FCRA renewal decisions must be reasoned and afford the applicant a fair chance to be heard. NGOs and societies holding FCRA certificates are directly impacted.
