CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY POLICY
CIN: U63040KA2007PTC04 41672

BACKGROUND:

Corporate Social Responsibility ("CSR") is a concept whereby corporate entities integrate social and environmental concerns in their business operations and in their interaction with their stakeholders on a voluntary basis. It is a very well known fact that a corporate entity cannot exist in isolation. A business enterprise cannot be oblivious to societal and environmental development. The corporate entities are empowered and possess great potential to significantly influence the surroundings in which it operates. The main purpose of an entity must be beyond creating wealth i.e, towards attaining sustainable development and to create stakeholder value. CSR is the continuing commitment by the Company to behave ethically and contribute to the economic development while improving the quality of life of the workforce and their families as well as of the local community and the society at large.

OUR CSR VISION

"Only a life lived for others is a life worthwhile."

In this era of Globalisation, liberalization and advances in communication technology, there is an alarming increase in the awareness of the CSR throughout the World. We firmly believe that ‘charity begins at home’ and if we want a better, safer, cleaner and healthy environment then we must take an initiative, first step to begin our journey towards striking a balance between the societal needs, economic development and eco-friendly environment through various CSR activities.

Every individual has inter alia the Right to Life, Right to live with dignity, Right to education, Right to clean and healthy environment which are engraved in the Constitution of India. The responsibility is cast upon the Government to ensure that these Rights are protected and are not exploited. We realize that this responsibility must be shared by each and every individual, especially by corporate entities to eradicate hunger, poverty, upliftment of the downtrodden society, provide education and protect the environment. We will strive to emerge as one of the best Corporate Citizens.
