The data was collected from five Indian universities and total of 447 usable responses were analysed. Further, to examine the validity and reliability of the scale confirmatory factor analysis was utilised. Additionally, structure equation modelling was employed to assess the relationship among the constructs. The finding suggests that emotional readiness, cognitive readiness, and organisational readiness have emerged as the significant determinants of sustainable organisational change with Generation Y - millennials. Owing to their differential personality traits compared to their previous generations. These contributions hold great significance to academic institutions, as it provides valuable insight into formulating strategies for instilling sustainable organisational change.
