Industrialist and chairman of the Mahindra Group, Anand Mahindra, has sparked a conversation on collective generosity after suggesting that India's vast population could become a powerful “compassion dividend” if more people regularly helped those in need.
In a post on X, Mahindra argued that philanthropy should not be limited to business leaders alone. He said that while India is often described as having a demographic dividend, the country also has the potential to create a “compassion dividend” through millions of small acts of kindness.
