This book provides a comprehensive overview of Corporate Social
Responsibility (CSR) in Indian corporations following the 2013
legal mandate on corporate spending of profits for CSR. Bringing
together authors hailing from diverse walks of life, the book
pursues a 'hands-on' approach, with real-world case studies and
examples that help the reader feel the dynamic pulse of India
immediately after the ratification of the CSR mandate in the
Companies Act, 2013. The Act is expected to affect over 16,300
companies with an estimated flow of approximately 200 billion
Indian rupees into the economy every year, thus shaking the
foundations of business and society and impacting the country at
multiple stakeholder levels. As a result, India is likely to become
the birthplace of social, economic, and environmental
transformation through financial investments in CSR! In order to
insightfully reflect on this transition, this book has been divided
into three parts. The first part presents the CSR mandate and its
implications, while the second focuses on its implementation and
the third part provides a view on the way forward. The book helps
to reveal the various layers of CSR in an emerging economy like
India and is expected to spark debate, discussion and research
among policy-makers, consultants, academics, practitioners and
other stakeholders the world over, which will further expand its
contribution to CSR literature and open up new vistas in CSR
research. "This is indeed a first of its kind book and marks a
watershed in the journey of CSR. It is an extremely important
contribution to the body of knowledge in the area of CSR and
Corporate Governance in emerging economies that is driven by a
completely different set of challenges, opportunities and
requirements from that of developed economies." Dr. Bhaskar
Chatterjee, Director General & CEO, Indian Institute of
Corporate Affairs
