This capstone project examines why heritage, art, and culture receive limited funding within India’s Corporate Social Responsibility framework. Using semi-structured interviews and a public perception survey, it analyses how stakeholders make decisions on CSR support for heritage preservation. The findings show that compliance demands, preference for measurable outcomes, and business priorities strongly influence funding choices.
