Section 135

CSR compliance, built in

For companies covered by section 135 of the Companies Act 2013, the CSR compliance page works out the 2% obligation from your net profits, tracks spending by project and type, and shows what must move to the Unspent CSR Account or a Schedule VII fund, with the deadlines.

Projects carry their Schedule VII item, location, implementing agency and beneficiaries, so the annual CSR report, Form CSR-2 data and the BRSR Principle 8 table come straight from your records.

  • Overheads checked against the 5% limit
  • Volunteer hours reported separately, not as CSR spending
  • Amounts in rupees, fiscal year April to March
