Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) isn’t just about compliance—it’s about making a lasting impact. Companies that invest in social causes not only build a positive reputation but also contribute to meaningful change. In India, CSR has become a legal requirement for eligible businesses under the Companies Act, 2013. But beyond regulations, how can companies ensure their CSR efforts are truly making a difference?
Understanding CSR in India
ndia is one of the few countries with a mandatory CSR law. According to the Companies Act, businesses with:
✅ A net worth of ₹500 crore+
✅ A turnover of ₹1,000 crore+
✅ A net profit of ₹5 crore+
must allocate at least 2% of their average net profits toward CSR initiatives.
