Q2. PART A-
The net worth of the company as of 2007-08 was Rs. 80,520 million out of which reported net
profit was about Rs. 8700 million. At that time it was an unwritten rule in the corporate world
was the CSR budget should be 2% of the net profit which was afterward mandated in the
Companies Act. Therefore the CSR budget would have been 2% of Rs. 8700 million that equals
to Rs. 174 million. But the proposed CSR budget was only about Rs. 50-70 million. That amount
when compared was too less and under proportionate.

Better relationship with stake-holders [communities, NGOs, environmentalists,government, and internal policies]
Cost Benefit Analysis:
Right now the costs are on the higher side because the company is at the asset building stage
which will take time to reap the benefits from the assets. There are negative sentiments in the
market about the company with ways of production of power with a huge skill-demand gap.
The factors which are beyond control of the company are growing carbon foot-print which stems
from over dependence on coal power, bargaining power of the NGOs and lastly losing
reliability on impact assessment technique.
PART B-
Different parameters on Impact Assesment:
It should be different across borders, because:
1. Different Ecology, Human Development Index and Factors, Culture2. Different Input factor-based production strategy3.
Even within border, different strategies for hydro, thermal & wind based energyproduction has been observed.
4. Tying-up with field-expert from NGOsare also good conduit to ground realities,communities
5. Need for regular ratification of sustainability measures
Benchmarking can be done on the following parameters:
1. Indices like Dow Jones Sustainability Index2. Varied Nature, scale of activities and target stake-holder3. Region-based institutionalization may be a possibility, but not a global one
