What is the California maximum percent of AGI that a donation of stock to a qualified charity can be deducted?

I think Federal maximum deduction is 50%, but I can not find a definitive answer on CA. I have found 50% and 30%. Does anyone know which one it is?

California limit is 50%.

The federal government has "50% organizations" but also "30% limit" and "20% limit" organizations (and in fact, for some donations to a 50% limit organization, the actual limit is 60%).

 

See publication 526 for definitions of the types of charities and their limits.
