TL;DR: In this article, a two-phase research approach has been proposed and used in this study, in the first phase, six categories of risks and twenty-five specific risks, associated with the GSC, were identified.
Abstract: Due to increase in customer environmental awareness, competitiveness and strict governmental policies, the approach of incorporating green supply chain management (GSCM), to conserve resources and sustainable production, is gradually becoming more imperative for organizations. However, the successful accomplishment of green supply chain (GSC) production and business activities is relatively difficult due to involvement of different risks. These risks and their respective sources have a tendency to disturb the GSC functioning, and thereby, decline in the ecological-economic performance. Therefore, identification of risks and their subsequent analysis in the GSC are very important to know and understand. The present research analyzes the risks relevant to adoption and effective implementation of GSC practices at industrial viewpoint. A two-phase research approach has been proposed and used in this study. In the first phase, six categories of risks and twenty-five specific risks, associated with the GSC, were identified. The basis of identification of the risks was literature and inputs received from experts from industries. Experts’ opinion has been collected from the officials and managers of four Indian poly product-manufacturing companies. In the second phase, the fuzzy analytic hierarchy process (fuzzy AHP), a qualitative and quantitative analysis was used to analyze the identified risks for determining of their priority of concern. The used fuzzy AHP approach is also useful in dealing with the human subjectivity and ambiguity involved in the process of risk analysis. In this research, an effort has been made to know the most important risk in GSC context, and the findings would be useful for industries in managing and reducing the consequences of the risks in GSC. The analysis of the results indicates that operational category risks are the most important risks in GSC. Sensitivity analysis is also conducted to examine the priority ranking stability.

TL;DR: In this article, sixteen important barriers were identified to circular supply chain management adoption in Indian context and the listed barriers were then analysed using an integrated Interpretive Structural Modelling - MICMAC approach.
Abstract: Circular supply chain emphasizes surge in application of reuse, recycling and remanufacturing and thereby promotes the transformation of manufacturing characteristics from linear (‘take-produce-utilize-dump’) to circular model of flow of products, by-products and waste. Supply chains of manufacturing industries have become global in last few decades. Products manufactured in developing nations like India and China are being sent to developed nations for consumption in higher volumes. Developed nations have the regulatory policies, technological knowhow and modern infrastructure to adopt circular supply chain model. Their counterpart is trailing in these aspects. In literature, limited research work has been performed on identifying challenges of implementing circular supply chain management in developing nations and their contextual association. In this article, based on thorough literature review and feedback received from experts, sixteen important barriers were identified to circular supply chain management adoption in Indian context. The listed barriers were then analysed using an integrated Interpretive Structural Modelling - MICMAC approach. This study attempts to identify the contextual interactions among identified barriers and to examine their hierarchical levels in effective adoption and implementation of circular supply chain management. The findings of this research will contribute in transforming supply chains in terms of bringing economic prosperity, addressing global warming issues and generating numerous employment opportunities. Finally, some crucial policy measures and recommendations are proposed to assist managers and government bodies to adopt and manage the concepts of circular supply chains effectively in Indian context.
