THE ANCIENT INDIA AND IRAN TRUST

Established in 1978, the Ancient India & Iran Trust occupies a unique position as an independent charity concerned with the prehistory, languages, and art & archaeology of early South Asia, Iran and Central Asia. Promoting both scholarly research and popular interest, we have a library of over 50,000 items and organise conferences, public lectures and visiting fellowships.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Financial issues to consider:

A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
Accounts have been filed late on 2 occasions over the last 5 years and the current period appears to have been extended
On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
