There are various activities which are creating adverse impact on environment construction is one of them. Construction industries are having potential to reduce the environmental impact by constructing green building, net zero energy building etc. The various rating agencies have developed different tools for designing and development of green building. The present study consists of study of various green building parameters of non-rated building to convert into rated building. Total 21 parameters were studied out of these rainwater harvesting, use low flow fixture for efficient use of water and energy saving were studied in detail and discounted payback period method was used. The discounted payback period was calculated. Research reveals it is worth investment of Rs 4.58 lacs to upgrade the infrastructure and within 1.97 years the invested amount will get recovered and which will safeguard the environment.
