• Corporate social responsibility (CSR) can be defined as the "economic, legal,
ethical, and discretionary expectations that society has of organizations at a
given point in time" (Carroll and Buchholtz 2003, p. 36).

responsibilities in addition to their responsibilities to earn a fair return for
investors and comply with the law.

customers,the local community,local,state, and federal governments ,
environment and other special interest groups.

• The rise of the modern corporation created and continues to create many social problems.
Therefore, the corporate world should assume responsibility for addressing these problems
like environmental , social, technological .
• In the long run ,it will increase the chances of sustainability in future and reduce the
chances of increased governmental regulation.
• Large corporations have huge reserves of human and financial capital. Hence they should
devote at least some of their resources to addressing social issues.

because, by doing so, the corporate world may forestall governmental intervention in the
form of new legislation and regulation.

ethical enjoy higher levels of performance example- ITC, Mahindra And Mahindra,
