Presentation/
abstract
With the increasing pertinence of sustainable development
and socially acceptable industrial growth, the concept of
corporate social responsibility (CSR) as a business practice
plays a vital role in global economic governance. The
management practices with respect to CSR has contributed
significantly to an Indian approach of sustainability,
especially as a country with lowest level of GNP per capita
and highest level of CSR among the Asian countries. India
has been the first country in the world to have a mandatory
CSR law for Indian companies since February, 2014. The
seminar presents the law and then discusses the issues and
concerns associated to the mandatory CSR law in India,
whether it is going to be a boon or a bane for this fast growing
economy, fighting the forces of globalization, resulting
increase in competition and the pressure to be profitable.
It also presents managerial perception and practice of CSR
across various industrial sectors.
