Fixed assets and total deposits were used as the input variables while total loans and net income were used as the output variables. Empirical results shown that Sanat & Madan Bank was the most effective bank in its industry with CRS assumption. The analysis also revealed that Eghtesad novin, Parsian, Pasargad, Sina, Saderat, Mellat, Melli, Post bank and Sanat & Madan had Pure Technical Efficiency with VRS assumption. All banks except Sanat & Madan Bank had Scale inefficiency. This indicates that they did not have the optimal performance volume.
