1. An Overview

Social entrepreneurship could be used by both for-profit and non-profit organizations in terms of how they run and who leads them, even though they do very different things and are set up legally in very different ways."
In India, social entrepreneurship is modeled after social for-profit businesses, non-profit shops, and 

mixed models, which are talked about in more depth below. 
Besides the methods already stated, two other ways to make a difference in India are through charity and Corporate Social Responsibility. 

India has been getting a lot of kind donations from around the world. Recently, there have been more donations to the community from rich people who have both short- and long-term goals. For the first time, a new group of wealthy businesspeople are thinking about giving their money to charity through gifts and benefit investments. In India, strategic charity is still in its early stages. 

Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is still a form of charity work in India, but it has shifted from building institutions (like schools, museums, and libraries) to improving communities. There are more global impacts on CSR, which means it is becoming more strategic (i.e. related to business) rather than just giving money to good causes. Talking about a company's relationship with its clients and incorporating CSR into its core operations should have an effect that goes beyond communities and the idea of charity. This gives the development sector a lot of chances to get local money to solve short-term social problems and invest in long-term social business. 

If a company has a net worth of INR 500 crore, a turnover of INR 1,000 crore, or a net profit of INR 5 crore, the new Companies Act Bill 2013 says it has to spend at least 2% of its average net profit from the three financial years before on Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) activities.

2. Why make a social organization?

Starting a nonprofit organization might be a good idea if you want your business to do more than just make money.

To stay in enterprise, social businesses need to make money, but they also have important social or environmental goals that are just as important. It can be hard to balance the "multiple bottom line" of financial, social, and environmental concerns. But making things better for people and groups can be very rewarding.

Most of the time, people start social businesses to meet a specific social or environmental need. For example, social businesses often hire people who have had a hard time getting jobs in the past, like people who have been jobless for a long time, young people, people with disabilities, or people who have been in prison.

People are also looking for things that are made and bought in an ethical way, which can be used by social businesses to make money. You might be able to beat out your rivals if you talk about how your service or product helps people and the world.

3. Funding your social business

You can give an official presentation of what you're doing to possible investors or loan sources if you have a written plan for it.

Think about looking into standard lenders like banks. The following organizations offer financial help to social businesses: 

• Community Development Institutions - investments in businesses that work in underprivileged areas 

• PSU Banks funding for business owners whose ventures will improve communities 

• Crowd Funding — loans to social businesses that can have long-lasting effects on society

This program gives new and growing social enterprise business support and training.

Start-ups can get help and advice from ProMunim of India.
