Abstract This research paper explores the intersection of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) and sustainable development in India, focusing on environmental initiatives undertaken by Indian corporations. Given the growing significance of CSR in addressing environmental challenges, the study employs a qualitative analysis of various CSR programs across industries, supplemented by quantitative data to evaluate their effectiveness. The findings reveal that while many companies have integrated CSR into their business strategies, significant challenges remain, including regulatory complexities and the need for greater stakeholder engagement. Key results indicate that approximately 70% of Indian corporations have begun adopting Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) criteria, reflecting a shift towards responsible governance. The implications of these findings highlight the critical role of CSR in achieving sustainable development goals and fostering corporate accountability. Furthermore, the paper outlines future directions for CSR in India, emphasizing the importance of digital transformation, climate resilience, and collaborative partnerships. By identifying emerging trends and areas for improvement, this study aims to provide a roadmap for corporations looking to enhance their CSR initiatives and contribute meaningfully to sustainable development in India.
