Green or not cannot be really be used ascertain the true condition of your battery .
Your battery can die easily if you have a faulty charging system or Parasitic drain in your car circuitry.
You need to confirm the above first before u can shift the blame to a bad battery.

Avoid using chinko battery. You can only use a load tester or multimeter to know the true state of your battery

Hi Kashif. I went through your posts and noticed that you're a transmission specialist. Please do you repair or replace transmissions?
