Brief outline on CSR policy of the company

The perception of CSR is changing from philanthropy to sustainability. Shared responsibility and generosity for society have long been part of the Indian tradition. The culture continues at NCC, where Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is etched in the organizational DNA. It is therefore no surprise that at NCC, we continuously think of ways to give back to society from successful business endeavors towards community development. As part of CSR strategy, NCC undertakes a wide range of socio-economic, heathcare, skill development and educational initiatives under its CSR program touching the lives of the marginalized population.

Our responsibility doesn’t end with mere thinking. NCC commits resources and effort.
