Abstract
This study aims to identify the most critical
green supply chain drivers and to explore the most prev
alent drivers in the real estate industry in India. Through
literature review, we identified 13 green drivers in the
real estate sector in India. A structured questionnaire
was administered to 280 potential participants, out of
whom 150 responded by filling out the questionnaire.
The respondents were working in reputed real estate
companies comprising owners, contractors, consultants,
architects, and project management companies in Delhi
National capital region (NCR). The relative relevance
index was used to rank the various green drivers in the
real estate industry in India. Multiple regression analy
sis was used to establish the degree of linear connection
between the variables. T-tests examine the differences
between 13 decision factors and dependent variables. The
cost–benefit of green supply chain drivers in a LEED-cer
tified real estate project in India established the efficacy
of green supply chain drivers in the real estate industry
in India. The study’s findings indicate that senior man
agement, developers, and the government are the most
crucial drivers for implementing the green supply chain in
the real estate sector. The study’s findings further confirm
that green building approaches, i.e., green procurement,
green transportation, building information modelling
(BIM), building energy modelling (BEM), and prefabrica
tion procedures, are underutilised in the real estate sector
in India.
