Abstract: Abstract From Merchant Charity in India and Welfare Capitalism in the West to Corporate Philanthropy to Corporate Social Responsibility to Corporate Citizenship, it has been a long saga of human concern for fellow beings and surroundings. As population grows and as science and technology advances, the social problems and issues proliferate at a faster pace and more concerted and innovative efforts, particularly from the powerful business sector, become imperative.
