Sustainable environmental performance linked with profitability has been one of the brimming concerns in the worldwide scenario. Therefore, the current study aimed to examine the impact of green banking practices on the firm's sustainable environmental performance. Further, the impact of sustainable environmental performance on firms' profitability was also measured. A survey-based research design was employed by collecting data from Private sector bank employees of India. The data analysis was performed on the selected private bank employees collected from August 2022 to November 2022 by employing the PLS-SEM method with the help of smartPLS software. The study found a significant positive relationship between bank environmental performance and profitability. Consequently, green banking policy significantly influences the day-to-day operation and funding or investment in green projects. Specifically, the study hypothesizes that green banking practices lead to improved operational efficiency, increased funding and investment in green projects, enhanced sustainable environmental performance, and improved profitability for private sector banks. The results of this study contributed to the existing literature on green banking practices and provided insights for policymakers, bank management, and other stakeholders interested in promoting sustainable banking practices.

Given the pandemic that hit the world, there was suddenly an increased focus on E-learning. This study aimed at determining the various factors that influence the youth of India to opt for E-learning. This study was conceptualized based on the technology acceptance model and integrating social influence (SI) and perceived enjoyment (PE) as additional constructs to determine the attitude (AT) and behavioural intention (BI) towards E-learning. The study also proposes a basic framework of knowledge for E-learning, a shift from traditional classroom learning, which is not researched adequately in previous literature. The sample for this research study were postgraduate students drawn by non-probability judgment and snowball sampling. Data analysis was performed using structural equation modelling, cross-tabulation and Pearson correlation with the help of SPSS Amos software. The results of the study concluded that AT significantly mediates between perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use, SI, PE, and BI. Additionally, the study determined the classroom and E-learning preferences of students comparatively.
