CSR may not be made obligatory in new Companies Bill: Moily

27 Sep 2011 Evaluate

The Minister for Corporate Affairs Veerappa Moily on September 26 indicated that the Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) may not be made mandatory in the new Companies Bill. He restated that the government is not in favor of imposing its views on the corporate sector.

The government will encourage a voluntary approach on CSR initiatives of the private sector. The minister also indicated that the government will act as facilitators for companies to adopt social, environment and economic responsibilities. The New Companies Bill will replace the current bill which was introduced in 1956.

Moily said that the growth and development can be made sustainable over a long period of time only when businesses are supported by appropriate policy regimes that encourage a systematic movement towards responsible thinking, decision-making and sustainability. By adding further, he said a new national policy on CSR with the participation of all stakeholders, should be put together.

On the issue of CSR, Planning Commission, Member Arun Maira, said that in India there was a general lack of faith in institutions, governments and businesses. Companies should measure and report the impact of businesses on environment and people's lives.
