Schedule VII · Companies Act, 2013

Every programme maps to a CSR clause

The Foundation’s interventions are structured to qualify under Schedule VII, so CSR committees can allocate with confidence and report without ambiguity.

Clause (i)

Hunger, poverty & rural malnutrition

Eradicating hunger, poverty and malnutrition; promoting preventive healthcare through nutrition-dense produce.

Clause (ii)

Vocational skills & STEM agritech

Promoting education and employment-enhancing vocational skills in agritech, IoT and soil-less botany.

Clause (iv)

Environmental sustainability

Groundwater preservation, climate resilience, ecological balance and soil/water restoration.

Flagship CSR interventions

Three programmes, one precision-hydroponics platform

Each project starts with a measurable problem, deploys Khet Aadhaar’s automated farming technology, and reports an outcome a CSR committee can audit.

Project A · Smallholder hydro-empowerment

Project “Kisan Samriddhi”

ProblemTopsoil degradation, power deficits and water scarcity driving smallholder farm distress.

SolutionDecentralised, low-energy vertical hydroponic arrays that use 90% less water than open-field farming, with solar backup and rainwater retention.

OutcomeRecurring income from high-value culinary herbs and nursery saplings, with direct market buyback linkages into Khet Aadhaar’s B2B supply corridors.

Project B · NEP-2020 school transformation

Project “Living STEM Labs”

ProblemLack of practical scientific and biotech infrastructure in rural, government-aided and public schools.

SolutionTurnkey on-campus hydroponic science laboratories with a practical 30-hour agripreneurship curriculum aligned to NEP 2020 and Atal Tinkering Lab standards.

Outcome250+ students per school trained in IoT, sensors and soil-less botany; harvested greens supplement student nutrition and midday-meal programmes.

Project C · Microclimate & carbon profiling

Project “Eco-Shield”

ProblemUrban-industrial air pollution and degraded community ground in rural-urban transition corridors.

SolutionAmbient IAQ/OAQ monitoring paired with high-density biophilic restoration, native planting and closed-loop rainwater recycling.

OutcomeCommunity composting, substrate recycling and water-conservation modules with measured air-quality baselines for each site.

Tranche-based fund releaseDrawdowns tied strictly to geo-tagged physical installation milestones; third-party audit facilitation on every project.
Independent SROI reportingLitres of water conserved, carbon-offset estimation, family income enhancement and student STEM engagement hours.

Institutional pedigree. Programmes draw on Khet Aadhaar’s MANAGE incubation and research partnerships with academic institutions, and are executed with engineering discipline and administrative transparency.
