Description	Online teaching has been exponentially increasing in India. There are many platforms for online teaching, such as Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, Cisco Webex, and Zoom, which have been used by teachers to compensate for the loss of the study of their students during the pandemic. On the one hand, these platforms have proven to be a boon for the education fraternity, as the physical classroom setting was not feasible due to lockdown and other restrictions; on the other hand, the effectiveness and sustainability of such classes have been questioned at a large scale by seasoned academicians and scholars. Considering the current scenario, this study investigates the various issues and challenges that determine sustainability. The sample size of the study is 192 teachers who have been teaching non-laboratory courses online. The data were collected with the help of a structured questionnaire based on a 5-point Likert scale. The statistical tools applied were exploratory factor analysis, confirmatory factor analysis, and structural equation modeling. It was found that technical challenges, limited interaction, and ineffective evaluation of the students were few of the factors encountered in online teaching. In the opinion of teachers, they feel bounded while teaching online but it does not influence the sustainability of online teaching. Book Name: Transforming Higher Education Through Digitalization
