On 28th March, 2014, the Ministry of Corporate Affairs filed an affidavit clarifying the scope of the term "normal course of business" used in Rules 4 and 6 of the Companies (Corporate Social Responsibility Policy) Rules, 2014, by giving the following example:"....a pharmaceutical company donating medicines/drugs within section 135 read with Schedule VII to the Act is a CSR Activity, as the same is not an activity undertaken in pursuance of its normal course of business which is relatable to health care or any other entry in Schedule VII." 78. This Affidavit clarifies that an activity carried out by a Company covered under Schedule VII which is a part of its core business, if not done with a profit motive, amounts to a CSR Activity. The aforesaid letter and affidavit of Ministry of Corporate Affairs are taken on record and accepted by this Court. Government of India is held bound by the same.
