We in-fact applied & got it rejected. ;-)

Went for hearings with the appropriate department;s Commissioner & co.

cited him all appropriate reasons, similar foundations overseas, grant of 80G 
for FSF India.


Is FSF, India under the non profit/NGO category?  Perhaps that might
help the babus understand the issue better.

For NASSCOM, I found this and perhaps it might help FSF's cause i.e.
Free Software for Free Computers under NASSCOM's program :)
