Rohan Textiles Pvt. Ltd. has a CSR obligation of Rs 40 lakh for the year and has not constituted a CSR Committee. A director asks who will formulate the CSR policy and monitor project implementation. Under the CSR Rules, what is the correct position?

The Board of Directors discharges the CSR Committee's functions. A company whose CSR obligation is up to Rs 50 lakh in a year is not required to constitute a CSR Committee, so Rs 40 lakh falls within this relief and the Board formulates and monitors.

  3. CThe implementing agency will formulate the policy and monitor itself
