(8tt$an et a6+ 2''7) shows that three principals guide the development of successful green products% consumer value positioning, calibration of consumer knowledge, and credibility of product claims. (Ra$9! et a6+ 2''.) :nfortunately, there is evidence to suggest that stated policies are not always implemented and that e!ternal stakeholders should be skeptical of policy statements if there is no economic incentive for their implementation. (Montoro0Rio! et a6+ 2'':) discussed about the time when all IT companies studied are honing their green branding strategies, there is evidence to show that environmental associations do not always enhance brand performance. Consumers have been found to process attributes of environmental practices of a brand in a fashion similar to that of information processing to any other attribute; but environmental beliefs have less importance. (Vane!!a Apao6a4a I;<=e4) helped in analyzing the communicational implementation of green brand associations. Three distinct types of emotional brand benefits suitable for green branding are identified% the feeling of well'being "(warm glow)# from acting in an altruistic way, self'e!pressive benefits, and nature'related consumption e!periences. 8esults of the study confirm significant perceptual effects of green brand communications, proposed dimensions of green brand benefits, as well as significant positive attitude effects of green brand associations.

There is a large number of well studied approaches to the implementation of emotional brand benefits and brand e!periences through advertising (Coddington+ 155(> #&"6ege6$i6&" et a6.+ 1557> 2966er 1555) summarized by saying that regarding the attitudinal effects of green branding, some studies show that in certain situations consumer attitudes can be less positive towards green brands as a conse$uence of a
perceived trade'off between functional performance of the brand and its environmental impact. <eenakshi =harma > namica =ingh "3624#,) 0evelopment of IT companies, ?ournal of Clean @nergy Technologies, Aol. 2, Bo. 4. &owen, ,.
