Abstract As a part of society, business entities are focusing not only to the profit making, but also towards the conservation of the environment. Nowadays, Sustainable development is the need of time. And in this regards, all the companies are trying their best and cutting their carbon emission. For the purpose of it, stock exchanges are also taking some measures. They prepare several indices on the basis of certain parameters, like BSE Carbonex, BSE ESG, BSE 100, BSE Greenex and many more. The objective of this paper is to examine the performance of BSE Carbonex vis-à-vis performance of BSE ESG index. Six years monthly data from 1 November 2017 to 31st August 2023 has been taken. For the purpose of analysis Sharpe ratio, Treynor ratio and Jensen’s Alpha have been applied. The study found that BSE-Carbonex stocks are better option to investors as comparison to BSE-ESG stocks. Companies that understand the risks and opportunities, and position themselves well in relation to them, will deliver the higher long run returns than those which fail to adopt.
