About Orvys

About Orvys

A CSR advisory and implementation organisation based in Patna, working to bring more CSR funding to India's underserved regions.

Our mission

Direct more CSR to the places that need it most.

Since 2014, Indian law has required large companies to invest in society. That investment has grown four-fold in a decade. But it is concentrated in a few states, and the regions with the deepest needs receive the least.

Orvys was founded to change that. We bring together data, programme design and on-the-ground delivery so that companies can invest confidently in underserved geographies, and so that governments can attract the investment their people deserve.

How we work

Our principles

Need first

Go where it matters

We follow the evidence on human need, not corporate convenience, and help partners do the same.

Local ownership

Build with communities

Programmes are shaped with panchayats, district administrations and local organisations, so they last beyond the funding cycle.

Radical transparency

Show the results

Every rupee is tracked, every outcome measured and every report shared, including what did not work.

Long-term

Commit for years, not months

Lasting change needs multi-year programmes. We design for three-year horizons and sustainable exits.

Collaboration

Pool for scale

We bring companies, governments and NGOs together, because no single budget can solve a systemic problem.

Integrity

Compliance as a baseline

Schedule VII alignment, CSR-1-registered partners and rigorous due diligence come as standard.

Why we begin in Bihar

Why we start in Bihar

Bihar is home to more than 12 crore people, one of India's youngest populations, and a civilisational heritage from Nalanda to Bodh Gaya. Yet it receives about ₹25 of CSR per person, a fraction of the national average.

We are starting where the gap is widest, and building a model that can be replicated across India's underserved states.
