Distribution of Sanitary Napkins amongst the beneficiaries of OIL Arogya: The distribution of Sanitary napkins amongst the Women and Adolescent girls is a holistic approach to establish awareness on reproductive health. Absence of appropriate sanitary materials to absorb menstrual flow does not only affect female’s reproductive and general health but can also be a hindrance towards gender equality at workplaces and the society as a whole. At the same time usage of sanitary napkins helps in maintaining personal hygiene, sanitation and an effective tool towards empowerment of women. Study shows that in India, only 10 - 12% of menstruating women use sanitary napkins and 88 -90% of women are estimated to follow alternatives such as unhygienic cloth which make them prone to fungal, urinary and reproductive tract infections. As part of our joint initiative under Swachh Bharat Abhiyan and Project OIL Arogya, in FY 2017-18, distribution of sanitary napkins was carried out amongst young mothers and adolescent girls of Balijan and Lakhipather villages of Tinsukia district, where majority of the beneficiaries were from the tea gardens. Sanitary napkins were distributed amongst a total of 370 nos. of beneficiaries (220 in Balijan and 150 in Lakhipather). Throughout the day long program, apart from distribution of napkins several other activities were carried out. A movie named “during those days (un dino main)” which focussed on health and hygiene with special reference on benefits of using sanitary napkins and their environment friendly disposal was screened during the program followed by health talks on the benefits of
using sanitary napkins and how it can protect us from getting infected from various urinary and sexually transmitted diseases.

Financial Assistance towards one-time annual expenses of Deepsikha, a hospice and palliative care center at Guwahati for
terminally ill cancer patients of NE India and primarily Assam:
In FY 2017-18, OIL had agreed to provide one-time financial assistance of Rs. 18.24 lakh towards one-time annual running cost of Deepsikha, a hospice
for providing palliative care support to terminally ill cancer patients from North Eastern states with special focus on Assam. Deepsikha is a non-profit
voluntary organization working in the field of cancer care since 2007 in Assam, the North Eastern states of India as well as in Maharashtra.
During the last 10 years of their activities, it has been seen that NE India contributed towards the maximum number of newly detected cancer cases in the
country. Most of these cases are detected at a very late stage and as a result no curative treatment can be offered to these patients. As there is a virtual
scarcity of providing a holistic palliative care support system in the NE states, Deepsikha commissioned a 25 bedded residential hospice in order to provide
all round support to terminally ill cancer patients. The annual activities/facilities of Deepsikha includes (a) pain and symptom control (b) spiritual care (c)
homecare and inpatient care (d) respite care (d) family conferences, etc. Presently, the hospice is being run by obtaining support in the form of donations
from individuals and organizations which at times are irregular.
Under such circumstances, it becomes difficult to continue providing unhindered care to the patients. An amount of Rs. 1.52 lakh per month is required to
run the hospice. Now, with the support provided by OIL, it will be much more convenient for Deepsikha towards smooth functioning of the hospice which is
only one of its kind dedicated to cancer patients in the entire NE India.
It may be noted that, in previous years an amount of Rs. 30.00 lakh was provided to Deepsikha for construction of the centre which was inaugurated in the
year 2016-17. Also, an assistance of Rs. 10,86,437.00 was also provided to North East Cancer Hospital & Research Institute, Jorabat, Guwahati for
procurement of a 25 seater Mahindra Tourister bus (model T25 Bus) benefitting the patients and their attendants in their uninterrupted transportation to the
hospital. Apart from the above mentioned, no other significant contribution has been made by OIL towards one of the most feared diseases impacting the
health scenario of entire NE region.

Oil India Rural Development Society (OIRDS): Realizing the importance and
significance of rural development, Oil India Rural Development Society (OIRDS) was
instituted by Oil India Limited which is one of the foremost and extensive social welfare
projects designed to percolate down to the beneficiaries of the grass root level of India,
particularly of the rural areas in the operational areas of OIL. The Society was conceived
with the principle objective to promote, undertake, carry out, sponsor, assist or aid directly
or in any manner, any activity for the promotion and growth of rural economy and economic
development and welfare or upliftment of the masses from rural areas/villages from the
selected districts of OIL operational areas. Oil India Limited, the founder promoter of the
society envisions equipping the rural societies with technological advancements which
would further help integrating the less developed communities with the comparatively
advanced mainstream. The activities of the Society have been running under the guidance
of a Board of Directors constituted of few Senior Officers of Oil India Limited, Agriculture
experts from Assam Agriculture University and few Local senior persons having interest in
the field of agriculture. Revolutionizing the rural economies, OIRDS aims at sustainable
growth pattern by the best possible utilization of the available resources, generating
avenues for effective employment nurturing the existing skills of people by providing
knowledge of science and technology, financial aid and other essential know-how.
OIRDS under the aegis of OIL India is engaged in two core areas namely- the Agriculture
Project & the Handicraft Training and Production Centre (HTPC). The society through its
two core focus areas is constantly engaged in introduction of modern technology in the
field of agriculture and imparting training in handicraft to the needy people of OIL’s
operational areas. The Agriculture Project started in the year 1991, introduced modern
methods of cultivation to generate large scale production and thus providing an opportunity
to the unemployed youths of the society. Whereas the HTPC was established in 1984 as
a Silver Jubilee Year Project of Oil India Limited training young girls/women from the OIL
operational areas in knitting, embroidery and weaving under the expert trainers making
constant efforts to generate self-employment opportunities and economic empowerment
of women.
OIL AROGYA: Being implemented by IL&FS Education & Technology Services (IETS) in 20 villages for reduction of IMR (Infant Mortality Rate) & Maternal Mortality Rate (MMR), this project includes pre and post-natal health check-ups, sensitising women on maternal, child health and benefits of institutional delivery, tracking and counselling of pregnant

OIL Rupantar: Implementing agency: State Institute of Rural Development, Assam under the
Ministry of Panchayati Raj & Rural Development, Govt. of Assam.
OIL’s main producing areas are located in the three districts of Dibrugarh, Tinsukia and parts of
Newly formed Charaideo districts in Upper Assam. Today one of the main reasons of growing
social unrest in the primary agrarian region is the lack of employment avenues and lack of
adequate industrial growth. The growing unemployment problem has posed a serious threat to
OIL’s long term business goals. This is because OIL is one of the major industries in this part of
the Country, which is catering to the socio-economic development of the residents of its
operational areas. More and more unemployed youths expect OIL as the only source of
direct/indirect employment.
OIL being a responsible corporate citizen deeply committed to socio-economic development in its
areas of operation has collaborated with State Institute of Rural Development (SIRD) Assam, by

f. Supplementary Education Program in 30 schools, Implementing
agency: IETS, New Delhi.
Started in FY 2017-18, under this program, trained supplementary teachers in
English, Maths and Science for classes VI to VIII were provided to 30 government
schools in OIL’s operational districts of Upper Assam. It was found that in many
schools the ratio between the number of teachers vis-à-vis total number of students
in each of the classes were skewed. As such, the teachers could not provide the
due attention needed for each and every child leading to a gap in teaching and
learning. Moreover, many schools also did not have teachers mainly in the subjects
of English, Maths and Science. The program aimed at supporting the existing
teaching staff of the schools by providing qualified teachers trained in theoretical
and practical understanding of education, classroom management, subject
pedagogy & evaluation. The teaching methodologies involved provision and
integration of Blended teaching resources and methods: (i) Activity based learning
and use of interactive learning kits in Maths, Science & English (ii) Innovative
application of the BALA (Building as Learning Aid) Concept for an interactive
environment (use of adding dimension where the physical spaces of the classrooms
were converted into interactive learning teaching tools) (iii) use of multi media and
technology (K-Yan & K-Class) to ensure greater teaching effectiveness and student
learning abilities. The program was much appreciated by schools which benefitted
a total of 6,580 students of classes VI, VII and VIII.
g. Adult Education in 30 locations: Implementing agency: SIRD, Assam.

the regular course, sessions on other important issues like women empowerment,
health, hygiene, sanitation, awareness on available government schemes, child
rearing, etc. are also taught to the elderly participants.

Sports
Rural Sports: Implementing agency: Youth clubs OIL conducts rural sports in the OIL’s operational villages to promote games and sports among the youth and school students with prime focus on promotion of athletics. OIL’s endeavour to promote rural sports was initiated in the year 2001 which provided a platform and encouraged the budding talents to participate at the village level and eventually represent at the district / state levels. There are several examples of young sports persons from villages of OIL’s operational areas participating in such forums. Rural Sports as a CSR initiative apart from providing a platform and motivating the budding talents from the rural parts of OIL’s operational areas play the role of uniting the communities, mobilize, inspire and instil responsible behaviour among the children and youth. OIL’s contribution & collaboration with the social groups, district administration and sports bodies, has helped in making rural sports as one of the most popular sports event in the rural areas creating social advantage. By and large the community engagement in organizing the sports event has played the most important role in relationship development between Oil India and the people of its operational areas.
In FY 2017-18, the following rural sports events were organized: Dibrugarh District

Project OIL Urja- a project on Clean Energy
Implementing agency: Indian Institute of Entrepreneurship, Guwahati in association with
ICCO (Guwahati) and North East Agency Pvt. Ltd. (Guwahati).
Started in 2016-17 fiscal, keeping in view the need to create a safer environment for the
people at large, the project aims at reducing carbon emissions through the use of renewable
energy and prevention of indoor air pollution for communities of OIL’s operational areas.
The project has two components namely distribution of Fuel-Efficient Chullahs (Cook
Stoves) with Chimney and Solar Solutions.
Fuel Efficient Chullahs with Chimney: In FY 2017-18, 3,000 nos. of fuel efficient cook
stoves with Chimneys were constructed in 6 nos. of tea gardens belonging to OIL’s
operational areas of Tinsukia and Dibrugarh districts. It is believed that in rural areas, it is
mostly the womenfolk who take the responsibility of cooking for her family and spends
maximum time of the day in doing the same. As such cooking in traditional cook stoves
require more firewood and hence emit a lot of smoke thereby leading to indoor air pollution.
Therefore, the fuel efficient cook stoves were able to:
Reduce indoor air pollution helping to achieve the millennium
development goals MDG4); (reduce child mortality) and MDG 5 (improve
maternal health).
Help women in reducing the physical labour as well as drudgery of
collecting fire wood by increasing gender equality (MDG 3) and getting
more spare time to involve themselves in other productive activity.
Reduce quantity of fuel/firewood consumption reducing the pressure on
natural forest resources.

Project OIL Sakshyam
Implementing agencies: Mrinaljyoti Rehabilitation Centre, Duliajan and Moran Blind School, Moran
OIL has ventured into the noblest areas of welfare under CSR by extending need based support to the communities of physically challenged. Every
year as a special gesture under the OIL Merit Scholarship Scheme, OIL provides scholarship in the form of monetary support to students with
disabilities and special needs, studying in two special schools of Mrinaljyoti Rehabilitation Centre and Moran Blind School. The two schools visibly
located in the OIL’s operational areas of Upper Assam in Duliajan and Moran respectively cater to students not only from Upper Assam but also
from far flung areas of North East. Apart from monetary support as a special initiative, Head of Fields’ OIL, Duliajan also handed over a Maruti Eco
Van to Mrinaljyoti Rehabilitation Centre, Duliajan which has been helping the students to travel from their homes to the Centre, free of cost. OIL
believes that such gestures can be great moral boosters to these special children and for the society at large.
However, OIL has visualized that in the long run for sustainable growth and empowerment of this special section of the society much needs to be
done apart from supporting them on piecemeal basis. Hence, after several visits by the officials of OIL and brainstorming sessions with the
management of the two schools, the ambitious initiative called “Project Sakhyam” was conceptualized referring to sustainable “empowerment”. The
Project was initiated with the prime objective of catering to the needs of Mrinaljyoti Rehabilitation Centre (Duliajan) and Moran Blind School-J.A.A.B.
(Moran) whether in terms of infrastructure development, running costs or any special project which will act as a support base for enabling the
students as productive and independent citizens of the mainstream.
In the last two years, financial assistance was provided to the students of both the schools in the form of annual scholarships. At the same time,
financial assistance was provided to Mrinaljyoti Rehabilitation Centre, Duliajan for construction of a shelter home for girls (one time), procurement
of a diesel generator set (one time) and annual grant (in each year) for extension of services of the Centre. Similarly, Moran Blind School, Moran
was provided annual grant for incurring the running cost of the school (in each year).

Sustainability Reporting at Oil India Ltd
As per the National Voluntary Guidelines (NVGs) on Social, Environmental & Economic Responsibilities of Business launched on 8 July 2011 by
the Ministry of Corporate Affairs, Government of India, businesses of all size, ownership, sector, and geography are to achieve the triple bottom
line and inculcate responsible business conduct. In 2012, subsequent to the release of the NVGs the Securities and Exchange Board of India
(SEBI) mandated the Annual Business Responsibility Reporting (ABRR), a reporting framework based on the NVGs. Subsequently, in 2013, the
Companies Act was revised and Section 135 of this Act requires companies to meet set eligibility criteria to spend 2 per cent of their annual profit
on CSR activities. A progress report on the activities undertaken must form a part of the Annual Report and signed by a Director of the company.
The Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) issued a circular on 6 February 2017, advising the top 500 listed companies, which are
mandated to publish Business Responsibility Reports (BRR), to adopt Integrated Reporting (IR) on a voluntary basis from the financial year 2017-
18. IR promotes a more cohesive and broader approach to corporate reporting and explains to providers of financial capital and other stakeholders
how an organisation creates value over time. It aims to provide additional insights into how key business resources are being managed to meet
longer term needs of the business. The advent of this circular encourages to incorporate non-financial parameters in their annual report.
At Oil India Ltd, we published the first Sustainability Report “Darpan” in 2012-13 as per the MoU with MOPNG and subsequently in 2013-14, 2014-
15 & 2015-16. All reports were developed based on the GRI international voluntary guidelines.
Currently work for Sustainability Report of 2016-17 & 2017-18 is in process and due to be released during the Company’s AGM in 2018.
About Sustainability Reporting
Sustainability reporting enables organizations to consider their impacts of wide range of sustainability issues, enabling them to be more transparent
about the risks and opportunities they face. A sustainability report is a report published by a company or organization about the economic,
environmental and social impacts caused by its everyday activities. A sustainability report also presents the organization's values and governance
model, and demonstrates the link between its strategy and its commitment to a sustainable global economy.
With an economy closely linked to its natural resource base and climate sensitive sectors, India is poised with the challenges of poverty eradication,
sustaining the rapid economic growth and dealing with the global threat of climate change. India has demonstrated its commitment towards
sustainable development through a series of legislative, policy and institutional measures nationally besides participation in multilateral
environmental agreements, which integrate environmental, social and development concerns.
A sustainability report is a report published by a company about the economic, environmental and social impacts caused by its everyday activities.
A sustainability report also presents the organization's values and governance model, and demonstrates the link between its strategy and its
commitment to a sustainable global economy.

governance performance, and then set goals, and manage change more effectively. A sustainability report is the key platform for communicating
sustainability performance and impacts – whether positive or negative. A sustainability report is the key platform for communicating sustainability
