INTRODUCTION

Soumya, Souvik, Srishti, Swati, Tanushree | NEW DELHI INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT


Corporate social responsibility (CSR) can be simply and broadly defined as the
ethical role of the corporation in society. The aim of CSR is to increase long-
term profits and shareholder trust through positive public relations and high
ethical standards to reduce business and legal risk by taking responsibility for
corporate actions. It isn’t enough for companies to generate a profit and
merely meet the letter of the law in their business operations.

CSR strategies encourage the company to make a positive impact on the


environment and stakeholders—that is, all of the parties who have a stake in the
performance and output of the corporation. Stakeholders include the company’s
employees, unions, investors, suppliers, consumers, local and national
governments, and communities that may be affected by corporate activities such
as construction, manufacturing, and pollution. For some companies, CSR means
manufacturing their products in a way that doesn’t harm the environment and
protects the consumer from potentially hazardous materials.

Corporate Social Responsibility in India

India is the first country in the world to make corporate social responsibility
(CSR) mandatory, following an amendment to the Companies Act, 2013 in
Corporate
April SocialBusinesses
2014. Responsibilitycan invest their profits in areas such as education, 5

poverty, gender equality, and hunger as part of any CSR compliance.

The amendment notified in the Companies Act, 2013 requires companies with a
net worth of INR 500 crore or more, or an annual turnover of INR 1000 crore or
more, or net profit of INR 5 crore or more, to spend 2 percent of their average
net profits of three years on CSR.

Since the applicability of mandatory CSR provision in 2014, CSR spending by


corporate India has increased significantly. In 2018, companies spent 47 percent
higher as compared to the amount in 2014-15, contributing INR 7,536 crores
(US $1 billion) to CSR initiatives, according to a survey.

Listed companies in India spent INR 10,000 crore (US$1.4 billion) in various
programs ranging from educational programs, skill development, social welfare,
healthcare, and environment conservation, while the Prime Minister’s Relief
Fund saw an increase of 139 percent in CSR contribution over last one year.  

The education sector received the maximum funding (38 percent of the total)
followed by hunger, poverty, and healthcare (25 percent), environmental
sustainability (12 percent), rural development (11 percent). Programs such as

technology incubators, sports, armed forces, reducing inequalities saw
negligible spends.

INDUSTRY OVERVIEW:

The Fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG) sector is the 4th largest sector of the
Indian economy. It is characterised by high turnover consumer packaged goods,
i.e. goods that are produced, distributed, marketed and consumed within a short
Corporate Social Responsibility 8
span of time. FMCG products that dominate the market today are detergents,
toiletries, tooth cleaning products, cosmetics, etc. The FMCG sector in India
also includes pharmaceuticals, consumer electronics, soft drinks packaged food
products and chocolates. Since the sector encompasses a diverse range of
products, different companies dominate the market in various sub-sectors.

The FMCG industry in India is divided into the demographics of rural and
urban India. The urban market contributes 60% of the consumption revenue of
the FMCG market in India. In 2017, this sector recorded a market size of $ 29.4
bn. While urban areas have spearheaded the growth of the FMCG industry in
India, semi-urban and rural segments are growing at a rate that cannot be
ignored. Semi-urban and rural segments contribute over 40% of the overall
revenues of the FMCG sector in India. FMCG companies in India have
witnessed higher growth in rural areas compared to urban ones. And with 12.2%
of the world’s population living in the villages of India, the Indian rural FMCG
market cannot be ignored by investors. Dabur, one of the top FMCG companies
in India, generates over 45% of its domestic revenue through the sale of
packaged consumer goods in rural India. Hindustan Unilever, another name that
has consistently dominated the list of top FMCG companies in India, earns over

Soumya, Souvik, Srishti, Swati, Tanushree | NEW DELHI INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT


35% of its revenue from rural areas. Rural India accounts for more than 40% of
consumption in major FMCG categories such as personal care, fabric care, and
hot beverages. In urban areas, home and personal care category- including skin
care, household care, and feminine hygiene- will continue to grow at attractive
rates. Within the foods segment, it is estimated that processed foods, bakery,
and dairy are long-term growth categories in both rural and urban areas.

An FMCG industry overview indicated that India’s demographic profile plays a


major role in the growth of this sector. Not only is India’s demographic young,
but this segment is also characterised by increased urbanisation and higher
expenditure. Urban development initiatives by the government, as well as the
increasing middle class of India, has led to an increase in the number of
attractive markets in the country. Ernst & Young’s research on the cities of
India highlights the emergence of 30 ‘new wave’ cities such as Jaipur and Surat.
Consumption in these cities is growing at a faster rate than that of many of
India’s metros. India’s young population is also characterised by a high degree
of technological awareness. Growing penetration of smartphones and better
internet
Corporateconnectivity in India has led to a burgeoning E-Commerce sector,
Social Responsibility 9
which has, in turn, helped formalise large sections of the unorganised retail
sector. The E-Commerce segment is projected to contribute 11% of overall
Indian FMCG companies’ sales in 2030. The online FMCG market is projected
to reach $ 45 bn in 2020. This has been a major catalyst in the development of
the FMCG sector in rural India.

The FMCG sector is one of the largest sectors of the Indian economy.
According to an FMCG industry overview, revenues of the FMCG sector
reached $ 52.75 bn in FY18, and are estimated to reach $ 103.7 bn in 2020. As
consumption in India grows at an unprecedented rate, the FMCG industry
remains a key sector for investors. Acknowledging these trends in the FMCG
industry profile, the Government of India has undertaken various initiatives to
promote the sector. For instance, 100% FDI is permitted in SBRT and cash-and-
carry models of retail, and the minimum capitalisation for foreign FMCG
companies to invest in India is $ 100 mn. Even the implementation of GST in
India has had far-reaching consequences for the sector, as the highest selling
FMCG products such as soap, toothpaste and hair oil now come under the 18%
tax bracket (as opposed to the previous 24%)

Soumya, Souvik, Srishti, Swati, Tanushree | NEW DELHI INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT


The high growth rate of the FMCG industry in India goes beyond growth
drivers such as income growth and urbanisation. The consumption habits of
India’s new age consumers have resulted in an attitudinal shift in the market.
The India of 2030 will have 370 mn generation Z consumers, with changed
priorities when it comes to purchasing goods. The new Indian consumer is
characterised by high awareness, an affinity for health and nutrition and high
expendable income. This has led to the emergence of new FMCG sub-sectors,
such as the air and water purifier market and organic food staples. These trends
will further lead the development of the FMCG industry profile. Foxconn-
powered SHARP has released a range of innovative air purifiers cum
humidifiers, targeted specifically at the Indian market. With the growth of the
traditional FMCG sector- and the emergence of sub-sectors that were non-
existent until a few years ago- the future of this industry looks good for
investors.

ANALYSIS & CONCLUSION:


When Coca-Cola suffered the reputation crisis in the India and America, the
economical and societal influences continue to affect the development of
corporation. On this occasion, company recognizes that improving their

Soumya, Souvik, Srishti, Swati, Tanushree | NEW DELHI INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT


reputation and handling social and environmental problems are significant in
their company goal success. In order to achieve the successful goal and enhance
brand reputation, the corporation should plan Corporate Social Responsibility as
one part of development strategies for a long term. The macro changes below in
diagram 2 indicated that the reason why Corporate Social Responsibility is
important in modern society.

Particularly, after 2001, firstly Coca-Cola put corporation social responsibility


as a core part of a development strategy of company. Secondly, the company
was countered by India NGO, consumers, media and government in since year
2003, therefore Coca-Cola adopts to protection to protect its brand reputation.
Thirdly, when Coca-Cola join into WWF as a member, it can achieve the
improvement of water usage of company operation and development of the
framework to maintain water sources, which can be offset against the
manufacture costs in a long time period. Since Coca-Cola through these three
processes in the business operation, the corporation social responsibility is
becoming greater which are increasing the value of brand to the business. As a
result, the company prefers to invest more in-depth and long term approaches to
reflect the company corporation social responsibility. It will become a virtuous
circle when
Corporate corporation
Social Responsibilitysocial responsibility become part of the core business 16
strategy, largely promote the development of company and society.

In conclusion, corporate social responsibility initiatives can mainly enhance its


global brand reputation in Coca-Cola. After experiencing some conflicts and
dilemma in India and US, Coca-Cola began to implement corporate social
responsibility to maintain its reputation and customers. Although the conflicts
affect the corporation image to some extent, the company finally improves its
brand image and reputation through a series of CSR initiatives. Moreover, the
company devoted to the global environment, it reflects the positive attitude
toward the society and world. Coming with these corporate social responsibility
initiatives, Coca-Cola not only makes contribution to the society, but also
enhances its corporation reputation and image.

If Coca-Cola has successfully applies its corporate social responsibility, it


would attract a great number of consumers to accept its brand. Therefore, after
the experience of some conflict, the CSR initiatives of the company increase
rapidly, facilitating to improve brand reputation, which would raise sales
volume and benefit. In a long term period, Coca-Cola believed that the
corporate social responsibility initiatives would make a significant role in

Soumya, Souvik, Srishti, Swati, Tanushree | NEW DELHI INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT


business success. Also, there still some drawbacks by using CSR strategies, for
instant, the expenses of CSR initiatives would damage the benefit of
shareholders. However, the advantage of CSR initiatives would overweight the
disadvantage toward society and company.

concluded that today Companies practicing Corporate Social Responsibility
need not be altruistic to be effective. The companies like PepsiCo and Coca-
Cola invest in projects like water treatment facilities and a zero waste footprint
for their products because it helps them reduce their resource use, which in turn
helps them become sustainable and achieve higher profits The firm of the future
is expected to have undergone significant transformation such that CSR no

Mission Statement:

We at GCMMF (Gujarat Co-operative milk Marketing Federation) endeavour to


satisfy the taste and nutritional requirements of the customers of the world,
through excellence in marketing by our committed team. Through co-operative
networking, we are committed to offering quality products that provide best
value for money.”

CSR Policy:

Corporate social responsibility (CSR) has been defined as the “commitment of


business to contribute to sustainable economic development working with
employees, their families, the local community, and society at large to improve
their quality of life, in ways that are both good for business and good for
development.”

To meet with the CSR it is expected that a business in its entire procurement-
production-processing-marketing chain should focus on human development
involving the producer, the worker, the supplier, the consumer, the civil society,
and the environment.
Corporate Social Responsibility 42
Indeed, a very tough task. Most businesses would certainly flounder in not
being able to achieve at least one or many of those expectations. But AMUL has
shown the way.

Corporate Social Responsibility outstanding children of farmers in 46
pursuing higher studies Amul
introduced scholarship schemes in
1992. The children are given
scholarships for pursing Diploma,
Graduation, Post-Graduation and

Analysis:

The amendment notified in the Companies Act, 2013 requires companies with a
net worth of INR 500 crore or more, or an annual turnover of INR 1000 crore or
more, or net profit of INR 5 crore or more, to spend 2 percent of their average
net profits of three years on CSR. Amul has posted 13 per cent increase in its
turnover at Rs 33,150 crore during 2018-19 from Rs 29,225 crore in the
previous fiscal but still the company fails to continue the practice of doing CSR.
Previously, when there was no law to perform CSR, Amul use to do few CSR
activities. There are few CSR activities reported by Amul from 1960-2012 on
there site. There is no proper mentioning of there CSR policy on there website.
Even after being such a huge company with high profit rates, Amul does not

Soumya, Souvik, Srishti, Swati, Tanushree | NEW DELHI INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT


have a proper CSR committee. Most of there CSR activities is performed by the
local villagers and farmers. There was no expenditure details available which
they spend on doing CSR activities. So, after studying about the CSR for Amul,
we came to the conclusion that Amul is not involved in performing CSR
activities.
