Corporate Social Responsibility

Vishal Fabrics Limited views Corporate Social Responsibility as an opportunity to serve the society and work towards its betterment.
VFL has always believed in the philosophy of, “Thinking about others when thinking of self”.

VFL firmly believes that the society can be empowered by investing in education. For many years, progressive work in the field of education & knowledge enhancement and social care & concern have been taken up by us.

Complying with the CSR Policy of the Company, the CSR Initiatives for 2017-18 were focused on education. Education is one of the strongest contributors to a better society and also plays a decisive role in generating a sense of achievement, self-sustainability and all-inclusive development. To create a massive impact, a lot of innovation has been introduced in education.

VFL reckon that the benefits of every CSR activity must reach the people in every possible manner. And to achieve that, VFL starts off from the grassroots level, to eventually produce valuable fruits to the society.

VFL promotes education by providing educational material, computer & study material, student books & periodicals, teaching aids, library setups, scholarships, coaching classes, computer hardware & software for smart classes, school infrastructure, laboratory expenses, and other student welfare expenses.

Vishal Fabrics Limited directly executes all it’s educational welfare activities through its registered trust, ‘Milestone Educom Trust’, which has an impressive track record of making educational development a reality for four years.

During F.Y. 2017-2018, an amount of Rs. 34 lacs was spent towards the CSR activities in education, which is 2.21% of VFL’s profit generated after tax deduction.

In line with the provisions of the Companies Act, 2013 and Rules made thereunder, a Corporate Social Responsibility Committee has been formed on 28 May 2015 by the Board of Directors with Mr. Brijmohan Chiripal as the chairman of CSR committee.
