CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY IN INDIAN BANKING INDUSTRY

Initially Indian commercial banks were classified into four core groups viz. State Bank Group (SBG), Nationalized Banks (NBs), Old Private Sector Banks (OPSBs) and New Private Sector Banks (NPSBs). Then one commercial bank was selected from each of the four core groups. The selection of banks from each group was based on a study conducted by IIM-Udaipur along with Economic Times and an independent organization named Futurescape2. Their study identified India‟s top 100 companies for sustainability and CSR.
