Corporate Identity and Corporate Image:

Assertion (A):  Corporate identity leads to Corporate Image.

Reason (R): It promotes social identity and social responsibility.

(A) Both (A) and (R) are true

(B) Both (A) and (R) are true but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A)

(C) (A) is true but (R) is false

(D) (A) is false but (R) is true

Correct Ans: (A)

Explanation:

Corporate identity refers to how a company presents itself through branding, communication, and values. It includes elements like logos, slogans, mission statements, and visual aesthetics. Over time, a strong corporate identity shapes a positive corporate image in the minds of customers, employees, and stakeholders.

The given assertion (A) is correct because corporate identity directly influences corporate image. When a company maintains a consistent identity, it builds trust, recognition, and loyalty among consumers.

The reason (R) is also true because corporate identity often includes social identity and corporate social responsibility (CSR). Companies that actively engage in social initiatives, ethical business practices, and sustainability efforts enhance their public image.

Because both statements are true and (R) correctly explains (A), the correct answer is (A).

For example, brands like Tata, Infosys, and Unilever maintain strong corporate identities through ethical business practices and community programs, leading to a positive corporate image. In contrast, companies with inconsistent identities or unethical practices suffer from negative public perception.

In today’s competitive market, businesses must align corporate identity with customer expectations and social values to maintain credibility. A well-crafted corporate identity not only enhances reputation but also strengthens long-term success.
