Yes, they might not have the profit to do so. CSR is a must for big businesses.. it's a social responsibility to give back to the society that has made you successful.Also, it brings more visibility to the business and builds their good reputation among customers.
Yeah, if you watch the characteristics of successful business people around the world you will understand that they always give to charity. It always give them more popularity in my own perspective.

Yes, very true. Some of the most successful businessmen and businesswomen are the most well known philanthropists in the world. A positive reputation with the society does help a lot to the business. It brings visibility to the business in a positive way.

Definitely, I always try to read the characteristics of successful people. That actually shows that a business that focuses on charity works usually succeed.

Here in our country, there are advertisements on TV and various platforms that promote CSR programs. There are certain well known brands that do charity for girls education and other noble causes. It's advertised that how every time we purchase their products, a small money from that purchase goes towards charity.

most times the size of the business usually matters. If it is a small business venture you may not expect them to perform some social responsibilities.

The only social responsibility that is required of a small businesses for them is to pay the taxes that they are supposed to pay and nothing more.

Yes, nobody really expects much from small businesses. So their responsibility is to pay their taxes but when they grow to an extent they can give back to The society.

Even if they are paying their taxes honestly, they are doing a great service to the society. Unfortunately, many of them are not honest about paying taxes and find loops and holes to evade it and don't honestly disclose their income. Paying tax in a honest way is the best service to society and nation that any business or individual can do.

Sometimes, the small business may be making huge profit than the so-called big businesses . It all depends on the kind of services you are dispensing.

It is the best thing that small businesses can do and I believe that it is more than enough for them to contribute to the entire growth of the community where they are located.

When having a business, you also incorporate there your social responsibility for you are servicing the people's needs. You also socialize with them a good sign for the downside of that is customers trust you as the business owner.

This is actually very true but unfortunately so many businesses always try to look for loopholes to evade tax. that is actually a great harm to the society.

I agree there. It's sad that people get a bit selfish and greedy and don't show their profits and earnings honestly. They keep finding loops and holes to evade taxes.
And unfortunately, whatever tax is collected, a good part of it is not utilised well by the government. Blame the corruption and unethical politics.

That's true, the level of corruption in some countries is marvelling. But even at that it is important that businesses always pay their taxes.

Yes, corruption can not be used as an excuse to escape paying taxes or invade it. Because if you are not paying your taxes honestly, you too are involved in some sort of corrupt practices. A country needs taxes to run well with it's development projects and welfare schemes. It's important for building a nation.

Paying of taxes is not something that can be avoided. It is compulsory. If they like, let it be that one person just gathers the whole tax into his pocket, just be sure you have done your part.

Every business has its own social responsibility it ought to perform to its host country. This is to promote mutual relationship between the company and its host.
Don't forget the workers are provided by the host community. And any business that has relationship problem with its host would not enjoy smooth running of his business.
Social responsibility includes providing amenities, sponsoring local and national events, organizing seminars, providing medical services to the public etc.

Taxes are very important for the government because that is what they will use to implement their projects.
Yeah, taxes is very important and necessary in every country because it helps the government facilitate some projects. That is why people should try as much as possible to pay.

You are right. One need not follow others on the wrong path. One needs to do their share honestly. Both husband and I are into white collar job and our every income is transparent. I am proud to say that we pay our taxes honestly

It is a civic responsibility to pay tax. Any business that fails to pay tax is messing with serious PR issues because negative PR can down your business one day no matter how quality your products are.
