The goals serve as a global blueprint for achieving inclusive, equitable and sustainable growth. The present study evaluates the sustainability performance of leading companies listed on the NIFTY50 index to assess how effectively for top performing firms have integrated SDG principles into their strategic planning, disclosure practices and operational frameworks. The resulting scores provide a quantifiable measure of companys alignment with global SDG agenda. Also, the study analyzes the financial performance indicators specifically for stock returns and volatility using NIFTY50 as benchmark. It reveals a positive relationship between higher SDG scores and improved stock performance as well as a negative correlation for volatility suggesting that companies with stronger sustainability engagement tend to offer better risk- adjusted returns.
