Buildings are built to fulfil a purpose. It must be safe, healthy, comfortable, enable productivity and well-being of the employees, making it a green building. In today's world energy crisis, it is important for architects and builders to focus on efficient buildings. Technologies applied in green buildings will enhance the building environment and functionality for occupants, while reducing operational costs. This paper seeks to provide an overview of Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) in India, which is associated with the Indian Green Business Council. The review of the most relevant green building systems demonstrates that there is a significant growth in this field. The objective of the paper is to raise awareness of the importance of a green building for a better future. And further to see the negative impacts of conventional buildings while creating healthy and beneficial places for human beings to live, work and play.Keywords
