CSR, which is made compulsory under the Companies Act and was passed by parliament, comes into effect from April 1, 2014.

From April 1, all registered companies have to nominate three members for their CSR committee from their board. Companies will now be required to spend in structured manner. There will also be a need for whole lot of CSR professionals and consultants and other specialists.
