Performance of mandated Corporate Social Responsibility of Indian Companies

摘要

In this paper, the authors analyze the performance of Corporate Social Responsibility by examining the empirical linkage between Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) and Financial Performance, specifically focusing on leading public Indian companies. Numerous researchers have explored similar study and investigated the exact link for the last 20 years. However, the authors in the current study conducted a study of literature reviews across all regions, especially focusing on the Indian context. The authors of the current study found that across more than 100 literatures there are no more than 3 studies that have the Indian context. Hence, the authors explored this gap on Indian context and efforts are taken to develop the linkage and the relationship between CSP and CFP. The authors also took efforts to explore which of the financial variables are linked and if the results are similar to the already existing studies across other regions.
