In Febuary 2006 the group resolved to take further step in registering their group as a local Non-Governmental Organisation. Further on 8th Nov. 2006, the registration certificate (NGO Reg. No. S. 5914/6476) was granted to the group under the names of Kikandwa Rural Communities Development Organization. On 9th July 2009 the Organization got incorporated as a company Limited by Guarantee.
