Goa High Court Validates CSR Use for Child Welfare Projects

Panaji

In a landmark interpretation, the Goa High Court ruled that companies can lawfully use CSR funds for child-focused welfare, including education, health, and protection programs.

The judgment follows a petition challenging whether certain child NGO tie-ups fall under CSR norms. The court upheld that initiatives benefiting underprivileged children meet both the letter and spirit of the Companies Act’s CSR provisions.

👧 Could this judgment unlock new funding flows for vulnerable children or trigger misuse without clear guidelines?
