This paper tries to compare the performance in terms of price growth of NIFTY and ESG Indices and examines if the reporting of non-financial information by the firms in ESG Index affects the performance of ESG Index as compared to NIFTY Index in the pre-crisis, crisis and post-crisis period. The growth rate of both the indices in different time periods is calculated and is then compared for both the indices for different time periods. The results show that NIFTY Index has performed better in pre-crisis period but ESG Index have performed better in crisis and post-crisis period.
