WHAT IS CSR?
CSR stands for Corporate Social Responsibility which is a
management concept whereby companies integrate social and
environmental concerns in their business operations and
interactions with their stakeholders.CSR is where businesses
look at how they can better serve society as a whole, thereby
improving its public image and relations.
A good example of CSR would include Google that invested
$1.5 billion into renewable energy, and Disney which invested
$100 million in children's hospitals.

WHAT MAKES
WIPRO DIFFERRENT
What differentiates the corporate social responsibility of
Wipro from other Indian corporates running sustainability
initiatives is the finesse. The quality of resources and
personnel that CSR activities of Wipro engage, the
attention to detail in laying out the intervention’s plan, the
thoughtful consideration for challenges that NGO partners
may face, and the readiness to come up with solutions. It
takes a long term view and sets goals in accordance.
WIPRO'S CSR SPENDS
The Company spent Rs. 181.8 crores
towards corporate social responsibility
activities in the financial year 2019-20,
according to the latest integrated annual
report. As you can see in the graph, the
actual spend is much higher than the
prescribed amount every year, for the past
five years. This is true of previous years as
well, since the firm has been engaged in
Nation Building decades before the mandate
came into effect.
