REC Limited Clinches Global CSR Leadership Award for Best CSR Projects
REC Limited, a Maharatna Central Public Sector Enterprise under the Ministry of Power and a leading Non-Banking Financial Company (NBFC), has been honoured with the prestigious Global CSR Excellence & Leadership Awards under the “Best CSR Projects in PSUs” category. The recognition comes for its flagship healthcare initiative, “Doctor Aapke Dwar,” a programme dedicated to improving access to primary healthcare services in rural and remote regions across India.
The award was presented during the 15th Edition of the Global CSR Excellence & Leadership Awards organised by World CSR Day on 18th February 2026 at Taj Lands End, Mumbai. The honour was received on behalf of REC by Sh. Alok Singh, Chief Program Manager, Regional Office Mumbai, and Sh. Vishal Sudesh, Chief Manager (CSR). Their presence at the ceremony underscored the organisation’s deep institutional commitment to community development and inclusive growth.
“Doctor Aapke Dwar” has emerged as a transformative healthcare outreach programme aimed at bridging the gap between medical services and underserved populations. By deploying mobile medical units and qualified healthcare professionals to villages and remote habitations, the initiative ensures that essential medical consultations, diagnostic services, and medicines reach those who often lack access to structured healthcare facilities. The programme not only addresses immediate medical needs but also promotes preventive healthcare awareness, early diagnosis, and timely intervention.
In many rural areas, geographical isolation and limited infrastructure continue to pose significant barriers to healthcare access. Through this initiative, REC has demonstrated how corporate social responsibility can complement public health systems and strengthen grassroots-level service delivery. The recognition at a global platform reflects the measurable impact and scalable nature of the programme.
This latest accolade further consolidates REC’s standing as a leading contributor to meaningful and sustainable social development. Over the years, the organisation has strategically aligned its CSR initiatives with national development priorities, focusing on healthcare, education, sports promotion, skill development, and rural infrastructure.
During the current financial year, REC’s CSR endeavours have received multiple recognitions. These include the ASSOCHAM CSR & Sustainability Award 2024, the CSR Award of Appreciation from the Indian Red Cross Society, and FICCI’s India Sports Awards 2025 for Best Corporate Promoting Sports – Public Sector. Collectively, these honours highlight the company’s consistent performance in designing and implementing high-impact community initiatives.
As one of India’s premier power sector financiers, REC Limited has continuously expanded its role beyond financial services to become a catalyst for social transformation. Its CSR philosophy is rooted in the belief that sustainable development must be inclusive and community-driven. By leveraging its institutional strength and field presence, the organisation ensures that its social interventions are not only compliant with statutory requirements but are also outcome-oriented and community-centric.
The Global CSR Excellence & Leadership Award serves as yet another milestone in REC’s journey of responsible corporate citizenship. With programmes like “Doctor Aapke Dwar,” the company continues to demonstrate that structured, well-executed CSR initiatives can significantly enhance quality of life in underserved communities while contributing to the nation’s broader developmental goals.
