Abstract: "This report presents the results of a research project carried out as part of the postgraduate training course of the German Development Institute (GDI), Bonn, in close cooperation with the Centre for Social Markets, India, and with the support of Ashok V. Desai, Consultant Editor of the Telegraph, India. The report is based on studies of the literature and on empirical data collected in India's main industrial districts of Delhi, Mumbai, Pune, Bangalore and Chennai from February to April 2006. The GDI research team would like to thank Sachin Joshi of the Centre for Social Markets and Ashok V. Desai for their strong scientific and technical support, without which this study would not have been possible. The research team would also like to express their thanks to the top officials of almost 40 Indian and foreign companies and 32 other stakeholders who spoke of their experience and responded to our questionnaire on CSR in India and the role of the UN Global Compact in particular.
