Our ApproachThe outbreak of COVID-19 has led to huge rami�cations across the world. With a large population and a relatively evolving health system in India, it is a challenge to contain the spread of COVID-19 and address the surge of the patients to be treated. Due to its high mutation levels it still leaves questions for an ultimate cure. The �rst case of covid in India was reported on January 30, 2020, in Kerala. The following months witnessed a couple of lockdowns, thousands of deaths, an unstable economy, and uncertainty in livelihood sources, especially among marginalized communities. Many countries, including India, faced a more severe second wave with a higher degree of intensity of all uncertainties in 2021.

The government, non-pro�ts, philanthropies, CSRs, business leaders, and individuals are doing their bit to curtail the spread and support the vulnerable sections of society. The recent noti�cation from the Ministry of Corporate A�airs to include COVID-19 response & relief under schedule VII of CSR has further catalysed the CSR action towards COVID-19, not just in scale, but also in form of innovative practices and collaborations. To aid vulnerable individuals and communities, helping hands were extended by many corporate companies through their Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR). In some of these cases, companies partnered with non-pro�t and philanthropic organisations for better pene-tration of the activities.

Keeping up with our legacy of contributing to the social sector through evidence-driven research, CSRBOX brings to you a cross-sectional exploratory study to map the remarkable work done by corporates through their CSR activities to respond to the needs of communities during the second wave of the pandemic in India. The report aims to analyse the diversity of these corporate initiated �nancial and non-�nancial CSR responses. The report attempts to cover the nature and type, quantity, and geographical extensions of these responses in India.

Multiple sources of information facilitated in adding a wider and clearer picture of the report. An extensive secondary literature review was done through newspaper reports, websites of national and international press releases, and reports published by the benefactor organizations. Additionally, some companies also shared their impact stories with us. The report covers COVID 2.0 responses of 350 larger companies in India, reported up to 31st May 2021.
