The Office of the Central Registrar of Cooperative Societies (CRCS) assigned a study to the National Council of Applied Economic Research (NCAER) to analyse and come up with recommendations for broad-basing the organisational set-up of the office of the CRCS and suggest measures to ensure efficient compliance of provisions of the Multi-State Cooperative Societies (MSCS) Act (2002) among cooperatives registered under the said act. This study by NCAER analyses MSCS ecosystem and thereby assess the framework of forming a separate authority, with adequate infrastructure and specialised staff strength to address various issues linked to functioning and monitoring of the MSCS.
