trust is not a legal entity still the trust may manage the affairs and business related to accomplishment of the main objects enshrined in the trust deed.
For other business which relates to sole motive of gaining profits in trade, it is barred to to that being a charitable trust.
The acts of a charitable trust must be confined to acts which come under the definition of charitable works.
