The negative impacts of the industries such climate change, global warming, ozone depletion and inefficient resource consumption have received a great concern and awareness among the public, politicians and academicians and this need demand of Green or sustainable design approach in all industries and sectors. Thus, a lot of efforts have been applied either in terms of theories or practices in order to reduce the adverse impacts of the industries. Green building rating tool, is a voluntary environmental rating system which evaluates the environmental design and construction of buildings, amid growing concern about urban environmental degradation. In this study, three primary rating systems prevailing in India are selected and analysed with the aim of providing insights into the current situations; highlighting the strengths, weaknesses, successes, and failures; and making recommendations for future improvements. The common aspect of all the rating system is to create a sustainable architecture in all respect so as to minimize negative environmental impact upon the environment. Certain analysis and data have been represented in this paper with the help of case study to highlight ambiguities and shortcomings in the weighting, scoring, and rating, which is mentioned in discussions. The three most prevailing rating system in India GRIHA, BREEAM and has been studied and compared with each other on the criteria upon which that are based.
