1 Companies Act 2013: Redefining Corporate Social Responsibility
2 Gearing up for implementing Section 135 Call to action Identify which of your legal entities (and subsidiaries) are covered under Section 135 of the Act Form a board-level Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) committee Assess the alignment of existing CSR activities to Schedule VII of the Act Assess your current allowable expenditure on CSR and how much more you need to spend Document a CSR Policy and develop a road map to operationalize the CSR policy Develop a monitoring mechanism to ensure implementation of activities and use of funds according to the CSR policy Applicability Section 135 of the Act applies to every company, which has a net worth of INR500 crore or more; or turnover of INR1,000 crore; or more or a net profit of INR5 crore or more during any financial year. Key compliance requirements 2 Companies Act How much needs to be spent? The board of every covered company shall ensure that the company spends, in every financial year, at least 2% of the average net profits (calculated as per Section 198) of the company made during the three immediately preceding financial years, in pursuance of its CSR Policy. Constitute a CSR committee of the board Unlisted public company or private company, which is not required to appoint an independent director can have CSR committee without an independent director; two directors in case of a private company having only two directors; two persons in case of a foreign company one person nominated by the foreign company and the other person as defined in Section 380(1)(d) of the Act; Three directors with one independent director for all other covered companies. The board s report shall disclose the composition of the CSR committee. The CSR Committee shall: Formulate and recommend to the Board, a CSR policy, which shall indicate the activities to be undertaken Recommend the amount of expenditure to be incurred on the activities referred above Monitor the CSR Policy of the company from time to time The board of every company shall: Approve the CSR Policy for the company after taking into account the recommendations made by the CSR Committee; disclose contents of such Policy in its report and also place it on the company s website, if any, in such manner as may be prescribed Ensure that the activities as are included in CSR Policy of the company are undertaken by the company Provided further that if the company fails to spend such amount, the Board shall, in its report made, specify the reasons for not spending the amount What CSR activities can you undertake? The company shall undertake activities or contributions as prescribed in the Schedule VII of the Act. The company shall give preference to the local area and areas around it where it operates for spending the amount earmarked for CSR activities. Key considerations CSR activities implemented through third-party NGO partners will only be considered as CSR spend if such organizations have an established track record of at least three years in executing activities in related areas. Companies may collaborate or pool resources with other companies to undertake CSR activities and any expenditure incurred on such collaborative efforts will qualify for computing the CSR spending. Only such CSR activities will be taken into consideration as are undertaken within India. CSR projects/programs of a company may also focus on integrating business models with social and environmental priorities and processes in order to create shared value.
3 Questions to be considered by a CXO Strategy Have we identified what CSR activities will be undertaken by the company? Are we comfortable that these activities make business sense, are differentiated from the competition and have high social impact? Have we considered the tax implications of CSR activities and related expenditure? Do we have a tax efficient CSR policy? Have we considered how CSR activities of multiple entities in our group shall be designed in order to minimize cost and maximize social ROI? Have we considered if the scope of sustainability programs focused on internal stakeholders be expanded to benefit the larger community and if this will be eligible for CSR spend according to the Act? Have we considered collaboration and pooling of resources to implement CSR activities with other companies who need to comply? Have we considered the potential risk of negative feedback from external stakeholders and influence groups as a result of making the CSR policy and report public? Do we have an action plan to manage this? Well prepared Requires consideration Operations Have we evaluated the most suitable mechanism for CSR implementation for our company will CSR activities be implemented in-house, through a Not For Profit organization set up by the company or through third-party NGO partners? Do we understand the regulatory requirements and compliances related to CSR activities? Are we sure that we are working with the right partners to implement our CSR policy? Do our partners have an established track record of at least three years in carrying on activities in related areas, in order for these partnerships to be eligible for CSR spend? If not, have we identified a pool of eligible partners to implement CSR activities? Do we have the monitoring mechanisms to ensure that third-party NGO partners will implement the company s CSR activities effectively and utilize funds for the intended purpose? Will contributions in kind and volunteer programs be eligible as CSR spend? Have we evaluated the accounting implications of the CSR policy, which the company intends to frame under the Act? Have we assessed the accounting implications of unspent amount of the 2% of the CSR activities in a particular year? Governance Have we assessed how the inclusion of an independent director on the board will impact its functioning, reporting and decision making? Do the board members have adequate orientation on the CSR-related requirements of the Act and its impact on the discharge of their duties? Have we reevaluated the structure, purpose and objectives of our existing corporate foundation (if any). Will CSR activities according to Section 135 be implemented through this organization? Have you considered the implication of related party provisions in the Act on CSR spend? For example, how will contributions to promoter s/director s philanthropic foundations be handled? How will this be perceived by external stakeholders and influence groups? Do we have the systems and processes in place to provide assurance to the board that CSR spend is according to the CSR policy? Companies Act 3
