What is a TTD Hundi Donation?

A TTD Hundi donation is a voluntary contribution made by devotees to the Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanams (TTD) for the maintenance and development of the temple. The donation can be made in cash or online through the TTD website. The Hundi is a sacred box where devotees drop their donations, which are then used for various purposes such as temple maintenance, annadanam, and other charitable activities.

How to Make a TTD Hundi Donation Online

To make a TTD Hundi donation online, visit the official TTD website at tirumala.org or ttdevasthanams.ap.gov.in. Click on the 'Donations' tab and select 'Hundi Donation'. Fill in the required details, including your name, address, and donation amount. You can pay using a credit/debit card, net banking, or UPI. Please note that you will receive a receipt for your donation, which you can use for tax exemption purposes.

How to Make a TTD Hundi Donation In-Person

You can make a donation in cash or by demand draft. Please ensure that you receive a receipt for your donation, which you can use for tax exemption purposes. Check the official TTD portal for current details on the donation process and timings.

Benefits of TTD Hundi Donation

Making a TTD Hundi donation comes with several benefits. Not only are you contributing to the upkeep and development of the temple, but you also receive tax exemption benefits under Section 80G of the Income Tax Act. Additionally, your donation will be used for various charitable activities, such as annadanam, which provides free meals to devotees and the underprivileged.
