1. IF "xyz is an unregistered trust", AND "IF" ABC co. has transferred money to an unregistered trust /entity, THEN ABC Co., and the Trust,both can be criminally prosecuted for fraud, breach of trust, mischief, Benami Transaction, and so on ....
2. An unregistered trust CANNOT file any Income Tax returns and neither can avail of any benefits etc....

ITR form number may be found out from your CA or CA Club.
"Ifs" & "buts" have no place for consideration and obligation.
However, if there is some truth in your hypothetical query show the documents to a local prudent lawyer for proper appreciation of facts, guidance and proceeding.
