Abstract: The environment is experiencing pressure from various manufacturing industries. Environmental pollution produced from process industries causing very dangerous issues like global warming, production of green house gases and depletion of ozone layer. Green supply chain management (GSCM) is the approach by which we minimise the effect of this environmental hazard. This study aims to identify the various measures on which performance of GSCM can be evaluated and further validation of the identified performance measures (PM). The automobile sector in India is considered to carry out the study in order to limit the scope of the research work. After comprehensive literature review and study we have identified six performance measures having 28 variables. Based on this, factor and reliability analysis has been performed. These measures are identified with exhaustive literature survey and its validation is tested using confirmative factor analysis to test the fitness of classification of elements among these measures. The study is done in central India, though the factors identified are relevant to Indian as well as global context.
