"Green" Stocks/ Investing in sustainable businesses

Hi,

I am a new member of this forum, and have been trying to do some research to identify a “green” basis of stock identification. The intent is to identify companies which operate in avenues that will benefit from the growing focus on environmental issues (Which some may debate that this is actually getting lesser focus as “Ease of doing business” drives lesser norms in environmental laws). Despite that, i’d like to hear from other members on this topic.

I have identified the following industries (And done some minor investment for purposes of tracking) in:

  1. Plastic alternatives (like Jute)
  2. Green energy : Hydel and Wind, I cannot find a good solar (or allied component) pick; Hydel and wind do have other environmental repurcusions, solar would be the better bet esp. in India
  3. Recycling/ Waste management : VA Tech Wabag , Eco Reco (haven’t tracked it).
  4. Organic food/agri based: Have not identified any options here!

Do add on any other industries, carbon neutral companies that qualify in this category… Would be great to eventually have a green portfolio.

Thanks!

I had researched on ganesha ecosphere but could not invest in same at lower levels.

Ion Exchange is another company engaged in water treatment.

you can research about Ducon Infratech --> pollution reduction theme

I have a fairly green portfolio with these stocks - Suzlon Energy (Wind power), Ujaas Energy (Solar power), VA Tech Wabag (water treatment), Cerebra Integrated Technologies (e-Waste). Picked all of them cheap at the bottom of the curve last year.

Dear all,

There is more than Rs.1 trillion opportunity in flue gas desulphurisation opportunity in thermal power plants to be completed before 2022.

Request the seniors to throw some light on the companies in this business apart from Ducon infratechnologies.

There has been a run up in Ducon after the promoter has pledged his shares to infuse capital in the company to bid for more contracts.

Green stocks need the regulatory push to become attractive…

Cerebra Integrated (e-waste)…tracking position
Yash Papers - bio-degradable eating ware range
Vikas Ecotech (lead free pipes)…let go with losses post q4fy18 results

Ducon Receives Order For A 2x300 MW FGD System From China

Cheviat company. This is a company working in space of Jute. It was known as kanoria jute mill in my childhood days and it was in bad condition in some point of time. But now recovered and cash rich. People can study this company if interested in jute sector. Vijay Kedia has some stake in this stock.
