    (Multidisciplinary Scholarly Research Association, India & Aarhat Publication and Aarhat Journals, 2019) Palkar, Yanita C.
    Corporate social responsibilities have been practiced in Goa for last many decades. With the introduction of section 135 of the companies Act 2013, which contains the CSR provisions and Schedule VII of the Act, enumerates activities that are taken as CSR activities such as eradicating hunger, women empowerment, promoting education, promoting gender equality etc. The paper focuses on the implementation of the CSR activities and identifying the areas which are not been focused by the corporate sector for the sustainable development of the society. The collection of data is based on primary and secondary data, through personal interview, websites, annual reports, and books etc. It have been suggested in the study that as the activities are already mentioned in the Act the activities which Government wants to undertake but due to financial problem and other constraints cannot implement, the corporate sector can help the government or they can start such projects on their own for the betterment of the society. In India we are behind in research work we depend on other countries for technology so if the corporate sector helps in developing the research culture in the universities by having tie-ups with the education system, if the education system is based on the need of the industry it will lead to creation of employment. Our universities would be listed among the top universities in world. India is the only country to have such legal provision. Government have been lenient to corporate sector after the introduction of CSR activities as an Act.
