CSR Spending in Rajasthan: Data & Trends (FY2025)

Nov 14 2026

In short: Rajasthan recorded ₹1,620 crore in CSR in FY2024-25 – the seventh-highest of any state, 4.0% of national CSR, up 5.4x from ₹300 crore a decade earlier. Much of it comes from mining, cement, zinc and fast-growing solar – sectors spread across a state that is India’s largest by area. That combination, high spend across enormous distances, is what makes reaching and verifying every district the real test in Rajasthan.

Rajasthan’s CSR story is tied to the land itself: mining and metals in the Aravallis, cement across the north and south-east, and one of India’s largest solar build-outs in the western desert. Those industries fund a substantial CSR pool – but they sit far apart, in a state so large that reaching every project site is itself the hard part. For a company running a CSR programme in Rajasthan, or a foundation funding work across its districts, the total is healthy; proving where it lands, across those distances, is the challenge. Here is what the Government’s National CSR Portal shows for Rajasthan. For the national picture, see our CSR spending in India hub.

How much CSR does Rajasthan receive?

Rajasthan’s CSR has risen from ₹300 crore in FY2014-15 to ₹1,620 crore in FY2024-25 – a 5.4x increase over the decade, led by mining, metals, cement and a rapidly growing renewable-energy sector.

Where Rajasthan ranks

At ₹1,620 crore, Rajasthan is the seventh-largest CSR recipient among 37 states and UTs, 4.0% of the national total – just ahead of Odisha, another mining-heavy state.

Rank State / UT CSR FY2024-25 (₹ Cr)
5 Tamil Nadu 2,738
6 Uttar Pradesh 2,213
7 Rajasthan 1,620
8 Odisha 1,575
9 Telangana 1,446

Rajasthan and Odisha sitting side by side is no coincidence – both are resource states where mining and metals anchor the CSR base. See how every state compares in our CSR spending by state analysis, or explore it in the interactive dashboard.

Why on-ground verification matters in Rajasthan

Rajasthan is the largest state in India by area, and its CSR-funding industries are dispersed across it – zinc and marble in the south and Aravallis, cement in the north and south-east, solar parks in the western desert. A programme reported as delivered in Rajasthan can be hundreds of kilometres from the next, across terrain that makes a quick site visit anything but quick. Under Rule 8(3) of the CSR Rules, large projects must be independently assessed by an agency that is not the implementer – and in a state this vast, the binding constraint is simply reaching every site to check it.

This is where a field network earns its keep: Anaxee’s Digital Runners operate across Rajasthan and 540 districts nationwide, so even projects scattered across the desert and the Aravallis can be verified with geo-tagged, timestamped proof – without flying a team to each one.
  • Field reach across Rajasthan – verification into the remote desert and Aravalli districts, not just the industrial towns. See our field services in Rajasthan.
  • Independent by design – Anaxee does not run the programmes it verifies, as Rule 8(3) requires.
  • Geo-tagged evidence – timestamped, photo-backed capture auditors and boards can rely on.

Running a CSR programme in Rajasthan? Let’s put independent, district-level field verification behind it – for impact assessment, plantation or farmer-programme verification.
