COMPANY INFORMATION

Tata Group is an Indian multinational conglomerate headquartered in Mumbai, Maharashtra, India. Founded in
1868 by Jamshedji Tata, the company gained international recognition after purchasing several global
companies. It is one of the biggest and oldest industrial groups in India. Each Tata company operates
independently under the guidance and supervision of its own board of directors and shareholders.

Significant Tata affiliates include Tata Chemicals, Tata Communications, Tata Consultancy Services, Tata
Consumer Products, Tata Elxsi, Tata Motors, Tata Power, Tata Steel, Jamshedpur FC, Tanishq, Voltas, Tata Cliq,
Tata Projects Limited, Tata Capital, Titan, Trent, Indian Hotels Company Limited, TajAir, Vistara, Cromā and Tata
Starbucks.

Ranging from steel, automobiles and software to consumer goods and telecommunications the Tata Group
operates more than 80 companies. It has around 200,000 employees across India and thus has the pride to be
nation‘s largest private employer. Mr. Ratan N. Tata has led the eminent Tata Group successfully. He was trained
as an architect at New York's Cornell University but he chose to enter the family business. He assumed the
Chairmanship of the Group in 1991. Named Business Man of the Year for Asia by Forbes in 2004, Mr. Ratan Tata
serves on the board of the Ford Foundation and the program board of the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation's
India AIDS initiative. Tata Group chairman Ratan Naval Tata has stepped down to pass on the entire
responsibility to Cyrus Mistry. Under Tata, the group went through major organizational phases

— rationalization, globalisation, and now innovation, as it attempts to reach a reported $500 billion in revenues
by 2020-21, roughly the size of what Walmart is today.

Approximately two third of the equity of the parent firm, Tata Sons Ltd., is held by philanthropic trusts endowed
by Sir Dorabji Tata and Sir Ratan Tata, sons of Jamsetji Tata, the founder of today’s Tata empire in the 1860s.
Through these trusts, Tata Sons Ltd. utilizes on average between 8 to 14 percent of its net profit every year for
various social causes. Even when economic conditions were adverse, as in the late 1990s, the financial
commitment of the group towards social activities kept on increasing, from Rs. 670 million in 1997-98 to Rs. 1.36
billion in 1999-2000. In the fiscal year 2004 Tata Steel alone spent Rs. 45 crore on social services.

Tata is accredited to initiate various labour welfare laws. For example- the establishment of Welfare Department
was introduced in 1917 and enforced by law in 1948; Maternity Benefit was introduced in 1928 and enforced by
law in 1946. A pioneer in several areas, the Tata group has got the credit of pioneering India's steel industry, civil
aviation and starting the country's first power plant. It had the world's largest integrated tea operation. It is
world's sixth largest manufacturer of watches (Titan).

What is Corporate Social Responsibility?

The concept of CSR originated in the 1950‘s in the USA but it became prevalent in early 1970s. At that time US
had lots of social problems like poverty, unemployment and pollution. Consequently, a huge fall in the prices of
Dollar was witnessed. Corporate Social Responsibility became a matter of utmost importance for diverse groups
demanding change in the business. During the 1980‘s to 2000, corporations recognized and started accepting a
responsibility towards society. Corporate social responsibility (CSR) focuses on the wealth creation for the
optimal benefit of all stakeholders – including shareholders, employees, customers, environment and society.
The term stakeholder, means all those on whom an organization's performance and activities have some impact
either directly or indirectly. This term was used to describe corporate owners beyond shareholders.

CSR refers to the obligations of businessmen to pursue those policies to make those decisions or to follow those
lines of relations which are desirable in terms of the objectives and values of our society. Also, Social
responsibility means that businessmen should oversee the operation of an economic system that fulfills the
expectations of the people. An ideal CSR has both ethical and philosophical dimensions, particularly in India
where there exists a wide gap between sections of people in terms of income and standards as well as socio-
economic status. It is argued that industry in the 20th century can no longer be regarded as a private
arrangement for enriching shareholders. It has become a joint enterprise in which workers, management,
consumers, the locality, govt. and trade union officials all play a part. If the system which we know by the name
private enterprise is to continue, some way must be found to embrace many interests whom we go to make up
industry in a common purpose. CSR implies some sort of commitment, through corporate policies and action.
This operational view of CSR is reflected in a firm‘s social performance, which can be assessed by how a firm
manages its societal relationships, its social impact and the outcomes of its CSR policies and actions.
Changes in the Company’s Articles of Association

“A Tata Company shall be committed to be a good corporate citizen not only in compliance with all relevant laws
and regulations but also by actively assisting in the improvement of the quality of life of the people in the
communities in which it operates with the objective of making them self-reliant. Such social responsibility would
comprise, to initiate and support community initiatives in the field of community health and family welfare,
water management, vocational training, education and literacy and encourage application of modern scientific
and managerial techniques and expertise. This will be reviewed periodically in consonance with national and
regional priorities. The company would also not treat these activities as optional ones but would strive to
incorporate them as integral part of its business plan. The company would also encourage volunteering amongst
its employees and help them to work in the communities. Tata companies are encouraged to develop social
accounting systems and to carry out social audit of their operations.”

Amendments were made to the Articles of Association of the major Tata group companies in the 1970s. Newly
included was an article stating that the “company shall be mindful of its social and moral responsibilities to
consumers, employees, shareholders, society and the local community”. To institutionalize the CSR charter, a
clause on this was put into the group's 'Code of Conduct.' This clause states that group companies had to
actively assist in improving quality of life in the communities in which they operated. All the group companies
were signatories to this code. CSR was included as one of the key business processes in TISCO. It was one of the
eight key business processes identified by TISCO's management and considered critical to the success of the
company.

Tata Corporate Sustainability Policy

The corporate policy of the group encompasses the sustainable development of all the stakeholders. The
major points included in the corporate policy are following:

CONCLUSION

For bringing back and maintaining the general balance in the economic and social arena it is evident to think
deeply and act wisely about CSR. Every business house owe some responsibility towards the society, nation
and world in general which provide it with all human, material and natural resources. Considering the long run
growth and sustainable development following the norms of CSR, devising new policies and effective
implementation is inevitable to bring and sustain a balance between corporate world and society, present
generation and upcoming generation, man and nature.

As far as the Tata group is concerned, it has gone a long way in fulfilling its duty and responsibility towards
the society and the nation. It has reached the masses to elevate their lives, to nurture their dreams and to
hone their skills justifying the statement of the founder, “We do not claim to be more unselfish, more
generous and more philanthropic than other people. But we think we started on sound and straightforward
business principles, considering the interests of the shareholder, our own, and the health and welfare of the
employees, the sure foundation of our prosperity”.
