in my opinion CSR under the company act not under the income tax act. if any exp. incurred by the company that required for smoothing running of its business or for completion of legal obligations. then it should by allowed under income tax act. due to I T act not the against the any law, but IT act make you pressure for make another law compliances as per the related law provision. and penalty will be charged by the related law not the income tax act.

1. CSR expenses as provided under Companies Act 2013, can be classified as:
a. expenses incurred by the company to undertake CSR activities on its own.
b. donations given to charitable trusts, National Relief Fund etc.
There is no confusion regarding Type B expenses as such expenses should be covered under section 80G of the Income-tax Act 1961
Problem with Type A expenses come from Companies (Corporate Social Responsibility Policy) Rules, 2014 wherein it has been prescribed that the CSR activities shall exclude the activities undertaken by the Company in its normal course of business. Thus it may be argued that such activities cannot be covered under section 37(1) of the Income-tax Act as "not wholly and exclusively" incurred for the business! However, the opposing argument is that any expense which "has to be incurred" as per law is deductible.
With regards to your other questions, do kindly read section 135 and the rules notified.
Given that these expenses should normally not invite TDS liability, provision itself may not get any tax deduction.
With regards to question 4, It is an ordinary expense.
