Abstract:

Over the years Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), a concept comparatively new to India, is rapidly picking up pace. CSR has become a fundamental business practice and has gained much attention from the management of large international companies. It facilitates the alignment of business operations with social values. CSR is deemed as a point of convergence of various initiatives aimed at ensuring socio-economic development of the community. Acknowledging the fact that mainstreaming CSR into businesses could be instrumental in delivering societal value, especially in a developing country like India, this paper specifically aims at providing an understanding of concept of CSR and analyses the development of CSR in India. It highlights the policies governing CSR in India and discusses the cases of CSR initiatives in Indian firms including SMEs role in CSR. There are several challenges facing CSR in India and the paper provides suggestions to overcome them and accelerate the CSR initiatives in India.

Abstract:

CG and CSR can be described as two sides of the same coin. Better governance leads the corporates to behave responsibly for the wellbeing of all the stakeholders. CSR is the medium through which corporates address the large group of stakeholders. Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) moving far ahead from its age old domain of philanthropy and charity has now reached to a new hallmark of Corporate responsiveness and action to social issues and demand for sustainability in order to advance further towards a new era of collective future action for factoring the sustainable business strategy for good governance and development of the society and its people. The recent changing in the laws in India related to CSR and CG practices in India triggers this study to determine the relationship between them and also measure the influence of governance attributes on CSR practices of Indian corporates. The BSE SENSEX companies in India are the leaders in good governance practices and also the flag bearers in carrying out major CSR activities even when the CSR was not mandatory in India. The influence of corporate board attributes like Board Size, Board independent, Chairman-CEO duality, Female representative in corporate board, multiple directorships, and Promoter and directors shareholding on Corporate Social Responsibility measured through multiple regression analysis. The results revealed that chairman-CEO duality and the present of female directors in corporate board significantly influence of CSR contribution. Before generalization of the result of study further research could be undertaken taking a large group of Indian companies and wider corporate governance variables.

Abstract:

India a country of as much diversity as is a hotspot for numerous contradictions. On the one hand, after much hardship, the country has emerged as one of the surging economies and a very important player in the new global order. In contrast, on the other hand, it is still combating issues related to impoverishment, starvation, and rights of undernourished children, societal welfare, and the like. The Indian economy sometimes rides a wave of boon and sometimes that of bane, which is because of an uneven, unseemly distribution of wealth throughout, which only increases social unrest; this uneven development and growth spread across the nation has targeted companies and corporate organizations for their contributions to the society. The scrutiny has only been increasing with the rising awareness of the gaps between the haves and the have-nots, which has further led to an outpouring in society’s expectations from the corporate giants. To this, the government has responded proactively, taking most of the corporate houses in its stride to provide for the society without commercial success and hence developing the nation getting in the way. The concept of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), a practice where companies realize profits and fulfill philanthropic, societal expectations, has taken ground since times immemorial only to become mandatory later. In the background of such a premise, CSR has time and again presented itself as a wonderful opportunity, the need of every hour and also as a serious challenge to be overcome, with its implications on almost every sector. Ever since it became a legal mandate in the year 2014, India has been a thriving “hotbed for innovative CSR scenarios,” in the words of D S Rawa, Former Secretary-General of ASSOCHAM. This paper seeks to trace the advent and growth of Corporate Social Responsibility in India through the eyes of the law, having undergone multiple legislative changes ever since the inception of the Companies Act, 2013. The paper also analyses the legislative amendments that are already afoot and awaiting enforcement. The researcher has tried to suggest the best possible ideological way forward in light of these multifarious changes, illuminating CSR’s import and primacy as a practice in the wake of the same.

Abstract:

India is the first Country in the world to make Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) mandatory, the New Companies Act 2013 in April 2014. Businesses can invest their profits in areas such as education, poverty, gender equality and hunger as part of any CSR compliance. The objects on which there can be charitable spending are specified in a schedule, the purpose being to assure that charity is directed to good social causes. For this purpose, a Corporate Social Responsibility Commitee has to be constituted. CSR is similar to Mahatma Gandhi's trusteeship principle. CSR has played an important and Influential role in corona and disaster relief work. There are also some problems regarding CSR In India such as lack of transparency, political interference, non-reach of help to the weak and backward classes, lack of right participation, and non-availability of well-organized NGOs, etc. All these need to be taken care of by the company and the gonernment transparency can be made more affective by seeing the importance of ensuring the role.

Abstract:

Purpose This study aims to advance two sets of explanation on the evolution of corporate social responsibility (CSR) – one set of explanation in the context of a developed country, USA, and another in the context of a developing country, India. The discussion includes the period after mandatory CSR rules were implemented in India. Design/methodology/approach This is a conceptual paper on the historical evolution of CSR in the USA and India. It reviews the chronological evolution of CSR. It compares the phases of CSR evolution between the two countries by tracking their CSR growth curves. Findings This study divides the evolution of CSR in the USA into four phases – conceptualization, introduction, growth and consolidation. In the first two phases, the rate of growth in CSR increases at a decreasing rate; in the growth phase, it increases at an increasing rate which stabilizes in the consolidation phase. In the Indian context, the study considers a three phase growth – conceptualization, introduction and growth. In the first two phases, the growth in CSR curve is inelastic. In the third phase, the growth rate increases but at a rate less than that in the USA. Originality/value Though past research has examined historical evolution of CSR in the US context, scant research has tracked CSR evolution in India. Not many studies have compared the growth of CSR between developed and developing countries. This study also contributes the concept of CSR growth curves to the extant literature on CSR.

Abstract:

The approach to corporate social responsibility (CSR) has changed through years from the philanthropy to the self-regulatory and to the present multi-stakeholder approach. In India, the CSR mandate has been looked and projected as a game changer and is expected to revolutionise CSR beyond the lens of defensive CSR, promotional CSR and charitable CSR to the next-level paradigm of strategic CSR. It is in this context an attempt has been made to discuss the CSR approach of public- and private-sector companies in India. The article makes an analysis of the CSR vision and mission statements, expenditure, areas of interventions and initiatives, CSR policy framework and reporting among public and private companies in India. The article is based on the secondary data for a period of four years (2011–2015) and gives a representative view of the companies making difference to the Indian society at large. The article intends to answer whether revolutionising CSR as a mandate is an attempt in the right direction.

Abstract:

Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) earlier applied as corporate philanthropy and has been in practice in India since ages. However, philanthropy in globalised and modern India does not solve the purpose in quantity and quality. Clause 135 of Company Act 2013 created huge hue and cry among the business community in India. As per clause 135 of the Companies Act, 2013, Every company with an annual turnover of 1,000 crore INR ($161 million) and more, or a net worth of 500 crore INR ($80 million) and more, or a net profit as low as five crore INR ($800,000) and more have to spend at least 2% of their average net profit over the previous three years on CSR activities. With the introduction of new Company act 2013 India became the first country in the world to have legislation for compulsory CSR spending. The paper aims at analyzing the motive of making CSR spending mandatory and it also attempts to explain the concept of CSR in the present Indian scenario, the social issues addressed by the Indian corporations, and methodologies adopted by them to address those issues.

Abstract:

Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is the concept of defining the responsibilities of the business and engaging them to perform their social duties. CSR is a not an Indian concept but a global one. World’s Richest man, Bill Gates, is also a great philanthropist who and his wife jointly run, Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. Richest family of India, Reliance, runs Reliance Foundation whose chairperson is Mrs. Neeta M Ambani. This spirit is to be ignited in all the business houses and companies of India and for this in 2014 Government of India passed the law to include CSR as a compulsory contribution made by the eligible companies, as defined in section 135 of Companies Act 2013. The paper studies the evolution and development of CSR in India in its present form.

Abstract:

Corporate Social Responsibility (hereinafter referred to as CSR) holds the profit striving corporate entities accountable towards contemporary social needs. One such area that needs consideration from both Government, as well as corporate entities, is environmental protection and development. Though the corporate sector in India has been contributing in bits and pieces towards environmental protection, by and large, there has been a lack of policy approach in contributing towards sustainable development by the corporate entities. The scenario seems to have changed a bit in the last few years, especially post statutory mandate of CSR under the Companies Act, 2013.This research paper is an attempt to analyze the statutory mandate of CSR u/s 135 of the Companies Act and subsequent amendments to it. It also contains a critical overview of Sustainable CSR activities by the corporate sector in India.

Abstract:

This study explores a firm's response to institutional pressure from industry peers on their Social community spending. Social community spending is symbolic of the fulfillment of a firm's corporate social responsibility (CSR). The authors hypothesize that mimetic isomorphism occurs among firms in an industry and organizational characteristics, i.e., business group affiliation, ownership status (state-owned versus private), and firm size strengthen or weaken the influence of industry peers. The authors test the propositions on a pooled time-series cross-sectional data of firms in India, with 3,307 observations from 2009-2017 using Generalized Least Squares (GLS) random-effects model. The findings suggest industry peers have a positive influence on a firm's SCS, and this effect is stronger for state-owned enterprises and large firms and weaker for a business group affiliated firms which further aggravates with group size. This article establishes the positive role of the industry association in driving its member firm's SCS and offers an understanding of the contingencies in the above relationship.

Abstract:

The term “Corporate Social Responsibility” has gained lot of momentum in the last few decades. Several scholars have tried to deconstruct what it actually means and the kind of responsibility corporate organizations have. Carroll’s pyramidal model has made significant contribution to the debate by categorizing corporate social responsibility into four broad dimensions: Economic, Legal, Ethical and Philanthropic. While several scholars have emphasized these four dimensions in different perspectives, the debate seems to remain persistent. This paper looks into different dimensions of corporate social responsibility and tries to deconstruct its primary motive. Through the scanning of literatures available on the definitions of corporate social responsibility concept, this paper tries to understand the focus of such an attempt. It then takes the help of qualitative in-depth interview methodology to understand what the corporate managers in India across sectors feel about corporate social responsibility. This leads to convergence of literature review and in-depth interview findings benefiting both academic and corporate world. The findings suggest that although companies seem to accomplish such responsibility for societal purposes, the ultimate objective is an economically viable model which leads to the sustainability of a corporate organization. A model is suggested based on the above findings.

Abstract:

Economic and social performances are the two strong pillars of sustainable corporate growth. The companies in India are now showing a genuine interest in the upliftment of the stakeholders they serve. They have started giving Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) a place in their overall strategies of growth. This paper studies the extent of CSR disclosure made by leading companies constituting BSE SENSEX in India. The disclosure practices of 25 of these companies have been studied for the year 2009–2010 by preparing a CSR Index. Content Analysis has been used. Company-wise score and item-wise score has been calculated. The results show that the CSR disclosure by the leading companies in India is low. The company-wise mean disclosure is just 31 per cent while the category-wise mean disclosure is 40.32 per cent. The category of ‘Others’ followed by ‘Environment’ and then ‘Community Involvement’ are the most well-disclosed areas.

Abstract:

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the role of top 100 Indian companies in natural disasters and identify best practices of corporations in India. Results are derived from secondary data collected from websites, newsletters and annual reports of the companies. Three natural disasters were taken for the study from the year 2013–15. It is observed that most of the companies have been engaged in disaster relief activities for social and ethical reasoning. These activities included financial help, stake holder consultation and partnerships with NGOs, non-profit organizations (NPOs) and the government. Corporations also help in disaster management simply by engaging in their regular business. This study analyzes the role of corporations in natural disasters from a corporate social responsibility (CSR) perspective and discusses the possible way of coping with natural disasters by Indian companies. The research findings will be very useful for Indian companies, Confederation of Indian Industries (CII), National Disaster Management Authority (NDMA), and Government, after the enactment of Companies Act 2013. It would be very helpful for normalcy of human life and business. It analyses only top 100 Indian company’s contribution. It lacks the reflections of the other countries.

Abstract:

The paper provides new empirical evidence on the positive link between corporate social responsibility and income growth. Using available data for 26 countries over 2000–2008 we investigate cross-country growth differences by adding new variable (corporate social responsibility) to the standard growth regression model. We show that corporate social responsibility impact on growth is statistically significant but limited in size. Moreover, the inclusion of corporate social responsibility variable improves the fit of the regression. Countries with higher corporate social responsibility penetration as India achieve higher income growth rates. Evidence of the positive link between corporate social responsibility presented in this study encourage but further research on mechanism how socially responsible behavior affects growth is necessary.

Abstract:

Objective: In India, incorporating structural transformation in corporate social responsibility for achieving sustainable development goals in the Covid-19 Pandemic has become a priority. Therefore, the present article aims to review the corporate social responsibility activities conducted by Nine Indian companies (two public sector organizations and seven private sector organizations) towards attaining Sustainable Development Goals in times of global pandemic.  To explore CSR activities performed by the Indian companies (both public and private) in recent times of crisis of covid-19. To assess the impact of Covid-19 on the economic, social, and technological environment of Indian Companies in recent times.   Method: For our research, we chose India since it was one of the earliest and worst-hit countries during the recent pandemic. Even though huge Asian corporations are a minority, It is a good fit for our study goal for various reasons. Less and medium-sized businesses, on the other hand, have a far smaller influence on society, Due to their prominence in the press, clients or consumers are more likely to provide feedback if they are proactive. As a second point, major companies have greater resources (e.g., human and financial) to spend on reporting and distributing social and environmental information. The existing study applied bibliometric analysis in the exploratory research. The data collection done through secondary sources in which articles extracted with the use of PRISMA flowchart.  Result: The study's findings state that most selected Indian Companies spend Rupees 50-1000 crores as corporate social responsibility activities and contribute to the Pradhan Mantri Relief Fund as a business response to face challenges in times of pandemic. Moreover, private companies spend more on CSR activities than public companies in India. The study provides suggestions to the government to make the corporate social responsibility activities compulsory for all the profitable companies so that country can maintain a corporate pool of contingent funds that can utilize to meet such times of critical circumstances.  Conclusion: Companies are taking steps to ensure the safety and protection of their personnel. This has been reflected in corporate social responsibility initiatives as well. Corporate social responsibility efforts must include pushing for and facilitating access to health insurance programmes and other equity indicators as a result.

Abstract:

Purpose India has recently entered mandatory corporate social responsibility (CSR) spend era. It is important to unravel the pressures of CSR implementation in the Indian context to understand how a better fit between business strategy and CSR spend can be achieved. This study aims to validate a model that integrates pressures, CSR implementation and financial performance through reputation within the institutional theory framework. Design/methodology/approach It is based on a questionnaire survey of 162 top-level and middle-level CSR managers in India and semi-structured interviews with eight top-level executives. Findings The study concludes that local community, government, peers and media are important institutional pressures of CSR implementation in India. Reputation partially mediates the relationship between CSR implementation and financial performance. Practical implications The study findings can help managers to know which stakeholders (government, media, peers and local community) are exerting statistically significant institutional pressures and how CSR initiatives be designed to cater to their requirements. Though CSR spend is mandatory in India, a strategic orientation towards it would enable the firms to derive value for the stakeholders associated with the business. Originality/value Relationship between pressures of CSR and CSR implementation has not yet been explored in the Indian context. Such a relationship tells us why is CSR taken up and influence of which of the pressure groups is considered important while implementing CSR. The study will help to understand the relationship between CSR–reputation–financial performance as perceived by Indian managers and to assess whether they perceive corporate reputation building as one of the most important outcomes of CSR.

Abstract:

One of the causes for raised eyebrows to the Companies Act, 2013 is Section 135. The provision mandates companies meeting certain requirements to compulsorily contribute to corporate social responsibility (CSR) activities, or explain the failure to do so. While this has been the subject of an ongoing debate ever since the provision was suggested in 2009, the provision in question has been met with considerable resistance from the industry. Arguments against Section 135 range from specific critiques of the semantics of the statute to critiques of the failure of India as a welfare state altogether.What this paper seeks is to attempt a definitive outline of the CSR law and practice in India, its roots in Hinduism, Buddhism and Islam, Gandhian philosophies and the pre-2013 position on CSR. It shall also attempt to provide a critical analysis of Section 135 of the Companies Act, 2013 and how the provision may be ignored, or worse—misused. Three arguments are presented in this regard. Firstly, that Section 135 constitutes a departure from the accepted position that CSR needs to be imbibed into the business and management principles of a company and is heading towards a potentially destructive conversion of the principles of CSR into corporate altruism. Secondly, the provisions of Section 135 make the Board of Directors liable to show to their shareholders—the compliance of the company’s social responsibilities. Instead, if the company is to have and comply with social responsibilities, the same should be ascertained by the society, or at least a representative of society. Finally, there is a slew of extant laws in India which also mandate certain companies to take into account their social responsibilities.
