dc.description	Book description: This book offers a comprehensive overview of sustainability and management in India and through its insightful essays highlights the complex and multifaceted nature of sustainability as a concept. It also demonstrates the debates surrounding the concept of sustainability and its ramifications for ground-level practice in managing organisations and for public policy. The contributions from sustainability enthusiasts, practitioners from disparate fields and academics working at the Indian Institute of Management Calcutta, have been divided into five themes: (1) sustainability as a normative concept; (2) sustainability concept at the global level, (3) sustainability practices in Indian organisations and consumer behaviour; (4) sustainability, corporate governance and corporate social responsibility and (5) sustainability: a critique of organisational practice and government regulation. The themes reflect both new and continuing issues confronting management in the country today. Examplesand in-depth studies make it relevant to the grounded reality in India. The expertise and experience of the contributors ensure that readers are left with a grasp of our current understanding of how sustainability is related to society and business, the direction this understanding will take in the future.

dc.description.abstract	As per the Companies Act of 2013, CSR initially included pursuit of shared value including sustainability by business but the eventual rules that were notified omitted reference to shared value and with that, sustainability. This chapter discusses the background to the omission and focuses attention on the meanings of CSR and sustainability in Indian regulation and policy. It argues that Indian regulation has from the beginning used a dual meaning approach by referring to more domestic notions of philanthropy and community development along with global notions of shared value. The omission of shared value needs to be interpreted in the light of developments for reducing fiscal burden on the nation and the need to create an alternate source of funds for the social sector.	en_US
