Consumers, nowadays, are becoming mindful of environmental issues than ever. The rising concerns for the adverse effects of consumption on environmental sustainability are leading to transformation in consumer behaviour. Consumers need relevant sustainability information about the products to shape sustainable purchase behaviours. On this note, marketers and organizations are increasingly using labels and logos for integrating sustainability evidence in their product offerings. This research integrates the theory of planned behaviour (TPB) with environmental concern, consumer effectiveness, consumer innovativeness and sustainable label awareness to determine how these affect the sustainable purchase behaviour for food products in China. The findings of structural equation modelling using data gathered from 273 consumers indicate all the constructs as significant, with consumer innovativeness having a negative and significant association. The present research expects to contribute to advancement in the literature on TPB and sustainable labelling by presenting a comprehensive and distinct model. Given the importance of the factors highlighted in the current research, marketers can design appropriate strategies by leveraging these determinants. The outcomes imply that marketers and policymakers need to make the consumers aware of sustainable labels and their favourable effects on the environment to promote sustainable consumer behaviour.

In today's changing landscape, digitalization and sustainability are the core drivers for financial services industry transformation. While both concepts have been researched in recent years, their intersection, often conceived as "FinTech," remains under-determined. The literature in this domain has emerged recently and is characterized by a specific focus on isolated aspects of FinTech and does not provide a comprehensive perspective on the topic yet. To fill this gap, this study explores linkages between process-related indicators and sustainable performance outcomes resulting from FinTech implementation. This research analysed the interplay of Technology-Organization-Environment (TOE) based FinTech framework including sustainable technology orientation, efficiency, environmental performance, and organizational value creation, through in-depth interviews and a structural model. The comprehensive framework was tested using 303 survey responses. The findings indicate the relative significance of proposed linkages of the process-related indicators and the variables, namely sustainable technology orientation, efficiency, and environmental performance, leading to value creation. The study contributes to the ongoing debate on environmental sustainability through sustainable operations management and value creation using cutting-edge technologies. The managers can draw upon the findings to improve their understanding of the factors for creating value through improved and sustainable technology orientation, efficiency, and environmental performance of FinTech applications.

The purpose of this study is to find numerous key performance indicators for measuring real estate project success. A Systematic literature review was adopted to achieve the research objective. The main objective of a systematic literature review is to identify, evaluate, and synthesize existing research. A total number of "82" papers from ABDC journals and other journals and conference papers, including thesis, book chapters, were used to identify all the success factors. The study reveals that most of the previous studies have considered three-factor cost, quality, and time, but a few factors have taken other success factors such as budget, schedule, client satisfaction, project manager competence. So there is a dire need to explore additional determinants as the real estate project success is influenced by several other variables. After the systematic literature review there are many other performance indicators such as customer satisfaction, budget, manager qualification and schedule are becoming important for good performance of construction project. The findings of the study have numerous suggestions and these implications are not only for the educational area but also for the construction sector. The study provides a direction for construction organizations and the researcher's future studies.
