      <abstract>
        <p>Impact investing is an emergent area playing a key role in attainment of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) through financial innovation, thereby connecting economic, social and environmental impact. The present study has adopted a qualitative approach based on document analysis in order to examine how financial instruments or strategies support SDGs. The cases of ReNew Power, Samunnati, and Bharat Financial Inclusion Ltd, were adopted for the present study due to their active involvement in impact investing and their commitment to SDGs. The results showcase the multidimensional understanding of how the use of different financial instruments and strategies of impact investing facilitate the attainment of SDGs in developing economies like India.</p>
