Statutory Framework

Schedule VII Alignment & Legal Eligibility

Companies Act, 2013 — Schedule VII, Item (iv):
Ensuring environmental sustainability, ecological balance, protection of flora and fauna, animal welfare, agroforestry, conservation of natural resources, and maintaining the quality of soil, air, and water.

Animal welfare is explicitly designated as a qualifying CSR category under the statutory mandate of the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA). Capital grants and programmatic contributions channeled to VOSD directly satisfy corporate legal obligations under Section 135 of the Companies Act, providing uncompromised audit trail security and protection for board-level CSR Committees.

Statutory & Legal Directorate
We have engineered VOSD's financial and governance operations to mirror the fiduciary compliance of publicly listed enterprises. Every rupee deployed through CSR capital is matched with audited utilization certificates, itemized veterinary surgery manifests, and GPS-verified ambulance tracking.
