    Hey Shweta! You must be aware of the fact that more the conjugation, lesser is the energy difference between HOMO and LUMO. This helps these molecules to absorb in the visible region rather than UV and higher frequencies region. Now the OH group just helps in extending conjugation so that absorption shifts towards higher wavelength (red shift) and the complimentary color of red is green and thus the color of the substance is green. Sulfonate group makes it soluble in water. Hope this clears your query.
