CSR is extremely important for sustainable development of all the people, on whom the business has an impact, including the society at large. A Company is a social institution having duties and responsibilities towards the community in which if functions. Its objective is to bring about maximization of social welfare and common good.Not just Corporates but even as an Individual, we all have a social responsibility towards the society and environment.
