The study conducted an exploratory analysis using the cubical regression technique to determine the Influence of various green supply practices on supply chain performance. Specifically, the study aimed to establish a relationship between green practices and performance, with the Indian leather industry serving as the context for a cross-case analysis. Through five case studies, the research examined five propositions, focusing on different green practices and their impact on performance parameters in the industry. The study’s main objective was to identify essential green practices that top management should consider in handling performance parameters. The research analyzed the Influence of these practices on critical performance parameters and used a cubical regression model to represent performance parameters against various green techniques graphically. The findings revealed that eco-friendly approaches significantly enhance product quality, customer satisfaction, and operational efficiency. Additionally, the study outlined factors that can affect green supply chain management. Finally, a cubical regression model was plotted on a curve to identify the Model that most strongly correlates with the Indian leather industry’s multiple performance indicators concerning green supply practices. Overall, the study offers valuable insights into the impact of green practices on performance parameters and guides top management in adopting eco-friendly approaches to enhance their supply chain performance.

The practice of managing the supply chain to lessen negative environmental effects and promote sustainability is known as “green supply chain management” (GSCM). This includes reducing energy and water usage, reducing unused, and utilizing renewable or recyclable materials. Green supply chain management also requires that companies look into the environmental impacts of their suppliers and customers, making sure their practices are sustainable as well. Companies that take part in green supply chain management are oftentimes rewarded with financial incentives, improved customer relations, and employee satisfaction. The Indian leather industry which is the most polluted industry needs GSCM practices at war footing not only for their sustainable operations but for humankind also. Human behavior is a complex and ever-evolving field of study. It is a combination of psychological, biological, and social factors that influence how people think, feel, and act. Human behavior is affected by a variety of external and internal stimuli, including environmental conditions, cultural norms, and individual experiences. As such, it is important to understand the various factors that can shape our behavior to better understand ourselves and others. As a result, it's crucial to comprehend and rate the behavioral aspects that have an impact on GSCM adoption in the Indian leather business. The Green supply chain management decision-makers would find this to be useful in establishing the chain of action for the effective employment of green practises in the Indian leather industry. ISM is a useful approach for understanding the complex relationships between various behavioral elements and their hierarchies in the context of green supply chain management (GSCM) adoption. It can be used to identify the key behavioral factors that influence the effective adoption of GSCM in the Indian leather industry, as well as the interdependencies between these factors. This can help GSCM decision-makers in the Indian leather industry to better understand the challenges and opportunities for implementing sustainable practices throughout their supply chain and to develop effective strategies for addressing them. Additionally, ISM can be used to identify the key drivers and barriers to GSCM adoption, which can inform the development of targeted interventions to promote sustainable practices in the Indian leather sector.
