Abstract
The contribution of the Small and medium enterprises (SME’s) to the economic growth of a nation is well recognized. In developing countries, as some authors argue (Leutkenhorst, 2004) the contribution of SME’s towards employment generation is significant. Since SME’s contribute significantly to the economy and are geographically widely spread in a country like India, their adoption of CSR and Ethical practices is crucial to a balanced development. There is a paucity of academic research in this area. In a vast country like India, comprising of 28 states which are economically at different stages of development, a study of the intra country similarities and differences in adoption of CSR practices in SME’s could be a valuable exercise for policy makers.
