## ANSWER

MINISTER OF STATE IN THE MINISTRY OF CORPORATE AFFAIRS   AND MINISTER OF STATE IN THE MINISTRY OF ROAD TRANSPORT AND HIGHWAYS

[SHRI HARSH MALHOTRA]

(a):  All  data  related  to  Corporate  Social  Responsibility  (CSR)  filed  by  companies  in MCA21  registry  including  project  wise  is  available  in  public  domain  and  can  be accessed at www.csr.gov.in. The Ministry does not maintain parliamentary constituency-wise CSR data centrally.

The Ministry of Corporate Affairs had allowed all companies to complete their annual filings including that of CSR expenditure pertaining to FY 2024-25 till 31st January, 2026 without payment of additional fees. Companies are still in process of filing for FY 2024-25.  As the filing date for the financial year 2025-26 is not due yet, the information on CSR expenditure by PSUs for the Financial Year 2025-26 is not available.

(b):  There  is  no  provision  for  allocation  of  CSR  funds  to  States  or  UTs  under  the Companies Act, 2013 ('Act') . On the basis of annual filings made by companies in the MCA21 registry, District-wise and Development Sector wise CSR expenditure by PSUs in Tamil Nadu during the Financial Years 2021-22, 2022-23 and 2023-24 is at AnnexureI and Annexure-II respectively.

(c): Under the Act, CSR is a Board driven process and the Board of the company is empowered to  plan,  decide,  execute  and  monitor  the  CSR  activities  based  on  the recommendations of its CSR Committee.
