A company can be registered for charitable purposes with the object of not making any profits. These companies are basically called section 8 company or NGO company.  

This is subject to the provisions of Section 8 of the Companies Act, 2013. Hence, these companies are generally called Section 8 companies and are formed to promote Commerce, Science, Art, Religion, Charity or other socially useful objectives.

A Section 8 Company shall not pay any dividend to its members, but apply the surplus of receipts over payments for promotion of its objectives.

These companies need not use the words Limited or Private Limited after their name and are generally registered as Guarantee Company with limited liability with or without capital. Such companies can be private or public depending on the number of persons involved..
