• Irrevocable Nature: Trusts are often irrevocable, meaning the terms of the trust cannot be easily altered or revoked once it is established, providing stability and security for beneficiaries.
• Beneficiaries: Trusts are created to benefit specific individuals, groups, or causes known as beneficiaries, and the trust deed defines how the trust's assets are to be managed for their well-being.
• Trustees: The trust is managed by trustees who are appointed as per the trust deed, responsible for administering the trust in accordance with its objectives and ensuring fiduciary duties are upheld.
• Charitable Trusts: Trusts can also be established for charitable purposes, and when registered as a charitable trust, they may receive certain tax benefits and exemptions based on the jurisdiction's regulations.
