Corporate Governance and Reporting M. Gnanasekar*, R. Naveen Kumar, K. Prakash Jay Shri Ram Group of Institutions, Tiruppur, Tamil Nadu, India

ABSTRACT In modern business organizations, the chief peripheral stakeholder groups are shareholders, debtholders, trade creditors and suppliers, customers, and communities affected by the corporation’s activities. Internal stakeholders are the board of directors, executives, and other employees. The greater part of the present enthusiasm for corporate administration is worried about adjustment of the irreconcilable circumstances between partners. In broad firms where there is a segment of ownership and organization and no controlling financial specialist, the principal– administrator issue develops between upper-organization (the “expert”) which may have out and out various premiums, and by definition fundamentally more information, than speculators (the “principals”).The threat emerges that, as opposed to supervising administration for the benefit of investors, the top managerial staff may move toward becoming protected from investors and under obligation to administration. This angle is especially present in contemporary open civil arguments and improvements in administrative approach. Keywords: capital and money markets, exchanged, financial market, growth

streams to fill in as an arrangement of balanced governance.

INTRODUCTION Corporate administration has likewise been all the more barely characterized as “an arrangement of law and sound methodologies by which enterprises are coordinated and controlled concentrating on the inside and outer corporate structures with the goal of checking the activities of administration and executives and in this manner, alleviating organization dangers which may originate from the offenses of corporate officers [1].”

Regulations The latest issue of the Regulatory Briefing provides an overview of significant developments, focusing on proposals, new legislation and other initiatives plus the PwC position on these. We also highlight areas where we believe management's input to a consultation or debate would be helpful.

The corporate administration structure comprises of (1) unequivocal and understood contracts between the organization and the partners for dispersion of obligations, rights, and rewards, (2) strategies for accommodating the occasionally clashing interests of partners as per their obligations, benefits, and parts, and (3) methodology for legitimate supervision, control, and data

Principles Contemporary talks of corporate administration have a tendency to allude to standards brought up in three records discharged since 1990: The Cadbury Report (UK, 1992), the Principles of Corporate Governance (OECD, 1999, 2004 and 2015), the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (US, 2002). The Cadbury and Organization for Economic Co-operation

INTRODUCTION Arbitration is an alternative dispute resolution (ADR) method where the disputing parties involved present their disagreement to one arbitrator or a panel of private, independent and qualified third party “arbitrators”. The process of arbitration was introduced as an alternative method of dispute resolution to ease the burden of courts which has backlog of huge commercial disputes. The main purpose of Arbitration law in India is to give speedy remedy to the parties to the dispute. The Arbitration and Conciliation Act was introduced to consolidate and amend the law relating to domestic arbitration, international commercial arbitration and enforcement of foreign arbitral awards as also to define the law relating to conciliation. The award of the Arbitrator is regarded as the decree of the court which is binding in nature. The importance of arbitration has also been enshrined in our constitution under Article 51 (d), the state has to endeavor to encourage settlement of international disputes by arbitration. The Act is based

on the 1985 UNCITRAL Model Law on International Commercial Arbitration and the UNCITRAL Arbitration Rules 1976. The Statement of Objects and Reasons of the Act recognizes that India’s economic reforms will become effective only if the nation’s dispute resolution provisions are in tune with international regime. India responded the recommendations of United Nations keeping in mind the role of foreign investors. Accordingly, India enacted the Arbitration and Conciliation Act 1996 in line with the UNCITRAL Model Law of Arbitration. The Statement of Objects and Reasons set forth the main objectives of the Act as follows: “(i) to comprehensively cover international and commercial arbitration and conciliation as also domestic arbitration and conciliation; (ii) to make provision for an arbitral procedure which is fair, efficient and capable of meeting the needs of the specific arbitration; (iii) to provide that the arbitral tribunal gives reasons for its arbitral award; (iv) to ensure that the arbitral tribunal remains within the limits of its jurisdiction; (v) to minimize

Corporate Social Responsibility in Rural Development Preeti Gugnani* Department of Management, Ganga Institute of Technology and Management, Kablana, Jhajjar, Haryana, India

ABSTRACT According to 2011 census of India, out of total population of 121 crores, 83.3 crores people live in rural areas that count nearly 70 per cent of India’s population. This population living in rural areas has neither adequate land holdings nor alternate service opportunities to produce or procure their livelihood. In the absence of adequate employment opportunities, the rural people are unable to generate enough wages to sustain their livelihood. In order to tackle and root out these specific problems, a number of rural development programs are being implemented by the governments to create opportunities for improvement of the quality of life of the people. It is a fact and the corporate have also understood it that there is a vast size and magnitude of rural market. So, the companies can take advantage of the situation by fulfilling their social responsibility. Corporate should augment their current charity efforts and utilize their business experience and capabilities to provide the required impetus to rural development and make valuable contributions in national development and prosperity. But the scenario has totally changed. Now sustainability, competition, environmental protection and finally customer delight have come in the picture. This paper tries to show that how national prosperity can be achieved through rural development and how corporate social responsibility plays an important role. Keywords: corporate social responsibility, economic welfare, opportunity, rural employment

INTRODUCTION Corporate social responsibility (CSR) can be described as the continuous commitment by corporations towards the economic and social development of communities in which they operate. The corporate houses and organizations are prominently doing a great job in the national interest ever since their inception. Earlier also the corporate sector has played a prominent role in the development of the country. And these efforts must be maximized. ROLE OF CSR IN RURAL DEVELOPMENT Corporate social responsibility is a process leading to sustainable improvement in the life of rural people. The rural developmental programs intend to reduce

the poverty and unemployment, to improve the health and educational status and to fulfill the basic needs such as food, shelter and clothing of the rural population [1]. Earlier some companies spent a huge amount on charities, donations and advertisements to generate goodwill in society. But such type of gimmicks had no long term positive effect on the people. Charity or donation is a selfless giving towards any kind of social need, but CSR is not a selfless act. Companies derive long term benefits from CSR. Today in India CSR has gone beyond merely charity and donation purposes. Now it has become an integral part of the corporate strategy. Companies organize their CSR activities through policies and strategies and set aside the budget to support their CSR programs. These CSR programs could
