What is a Trust?
A Trust is formed when a settlor (author) transfers property or assets to trustees, who manage them for the benefit of beneficiaries or for a specific charitable purpose. Trusts in India are governed by the Indian Trusts Act, 1882 (for private trusts) and relevant state laws (for public charitable trusts).
