Abstract
The introduction of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) in India in a statute is projected as a path-breaking initiative in the process of inclusive growth. As authentic data is likely to be available only during October-December, 2015, we have a quick look on the trends and volumes of Government expenditure in similar social sectors, and the size of the resources that might be available for such efforts under CSR, by a conservative estimation using published figures, in an effort to de-mystify the concept, its reach and the real purpose it could serve.
Author Keywords: Corporate Social Responsibility, Government Spending, Sustainability Sectors.
