Using a combination of popular ratings on e-commerce platforms, reviews and critical engagement with the literature by the team and carefully chosen juries, GLF annually shortlists and honours books in three categories: Business, General Fiction and Non-Fiction and Children. The idea behind having honour books instead of a single book prize is to give readers a sample of the best books on the environment coming out of India and build readership for this literature.

The awardees are given a trophy, a certificate and a cash prize and books are promoted through our handles and our partnership with Books on the Delhi Metro and the Earth Book Club, among others.
