Environmental awareness among the masses compelled many companies to adopt sustainable practices in their business operations. Remanufacturing is a well-tested and successful business model practiced in many European countries. But in many African and Asian countries, it is still nascent, including India. This research study tries to identify the critical factors in the “Operational Management” area for the viability of remanufacturing business in India. For this purpose, a questionnaire was developed based on the important factors identified from the extensive literature review. An online questionnaire survey was conducted among Indian white goods appliance manufacturing companies and their suppliers. The responses were analyzed statistically and ranked based on their criticality in initiating remanufacturing business in India. The findings may help the Indian government and manufacturing firms to frame proper strategies related to the operational management issues of remanufacturing business in India.
