Technical Efficiency of Public Sector Banks in India : An Empirical Study

Journal Title: JOURNAL OF COMMERCE AND TRADE - Year 2015, Vol 10, Issue 1

Abstract

The purpose of the present paper is to analyse the performance of public sector banks in India for the period 2002-03 to 2011-12 with the help of non-parametric frontier approach. The technical efficiency of twenty five (25) public sector banks has been computed using Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) model and the same has been further decomposed into pure technical efficiency and scale efficiency. The study reveals that on an average, technical efficiency score of the banks has turned out to be 0.963 and majority of the banks have obtained efficiency score within the range of (0.982-0.999). The empirical findings of the study conclude that performance of the public sector banks in respect of optimum utilization of inputs for producing the given level of output has improved over the period. However, the major source of technical inefficiency of public sector banks in India is found to be managerial inabilities in converting inputs into outputs optimally rather than inappropriate size of operation.
