Abstract [English]

The essential purpose behind Corporate Social Responsibility is to cooperate other pro-social aspirations and improvise reputation. Conventional CSR objectives involve depreciating environmental degradation, encouraging volunteerism among the employees, and bequeathing welfare. Corporate social responsibility is a self-adjusting enterprise design that supports organizations as humanly, socially culpable to themselves, their stakeholders, and the populace they are associated with and living around. The intention of the research is to analyze the corporate social responsibility initiatives in India and comparing the initiatives by the public and the private sector. The paper opts empirical methodology to conduct a survey based on certain questionnaire and it was evaluated that the private sector is more actively participating in CSR and related social welfare activities as it was demonstrated from the survey that the private sector highly indulges in every stream and compasses the infrastructure, environment protection, education and health sector as well as rural development.
