dear HIMANSHU,

Thanks for the reply. 

However, for the above querry of mine, i have verified with TRUSTS ACT & IT Act.

And as per Trust Act, by trust deed clauses, a resolution may be passed to open an institution like 'cancer research foundation' which will be controlled by the Regd Trust board of Trustees.

Regarding Under IT Act, it is  well correct as YOU suggested. 
Once again THANKS for your reply.
