Home › CSR and Partnerships

A CSR partner should be able to see where the money went.

We are built for the kind of reporting corporate partners need — because two of our core values are about exactly that.

Our current CSR status

CSR-1 registration is under process

Our CSR-1 registration with the Ministry of Corporate Affairs is currently under process. Until it is granted we are not able to receive contributions that a company intends to book as CSR expenditure under Section 135 of the Companies Act, 2013. We will publish the registration number on this page as soon as it is approved.

In the meantime, companies can support our work through general donations, which are eligible for exemption under Section 80G, through employee volunteering and payroll giving, and through in-kind support.

We would rather you learned this from us than from the MCA register. A CSR head checks CSR-1 status before responding to any proposal, and discovering it is pending after the fact ends the conversation. Stated up front, with a date to check back, it costs nothing — because the funds cannot move either way until the approval arrives.
