How it is governed

Corporate social responsibility is overseen by a board level CSR committee chaired by the Chairman and Managing Director. Annual CSR spend and project detail are reported in the annual report.

Project level spend and beneficiary numbers are disclosed in the CSR annexure to the annual report rather than summarised here, because the annexure is the audited version.
