R.K. Mishra (Ed.), Shulagna Sarkar (Ed.), J.Kiranmai (Ed.)

The Handbook of Case Studies in CSR is an attempt to share the best practices of CSR across public and private enterprise across India. The various case studies have been segregated in different areas in Schedule VII of the Companies Act, 2013 as well as Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Each case study is also attempted to be presented in alignment with the SDGs. The major areas that have been identified for sharing Best Practices in CSR are Education (SDG 4), Health (SDG 3), Resources like Water (SDG 6), Rural Development Projects (SDG 10, 11), Capacity and Individual Development (SDG 8, 4), Waste Management Projects (SDG 13). The KPMG report of 2019 clearly indicates that 41% of companies have aligned CSR projects to SDGs in their annual report, while Education and Health receive the most attention with 60% of the CSR expenditure.
