ABSTRACT
Banks are found to have substantially lower average efficiency than indicated by previous studies.
Efficiency is determined by sample size, the number of inputs and outputs of the model, the choice
of input and outputs and the degree of homogeneity of the sample. Homogeneity appears to be one
of the stronger drivers of average efficiency. Some intermediation models may be biased toward
finding higher average efficiency and lack criteria to determine whether the intermediation
process is profitable. The average bank is found to be competitive, but the low average efficiency
scores found seems to be a result of a small percentage of banks that temporarily manage to attain
some degree of super-efficiency. The inputs and the outputs used in data envelopment analysis are
standardized by utilizing accounting definitions and foundational finance concepts. This allows
modeling a bank’s productive process for the measurement of total productive efficiency and
provides a way to include the profitability of a bank productivity process. This standardized model
can then be extended to analyze other industries. The Indian banking sector, which was
predominantly controlled by the government, was liberalized in early 1990s. The resultant
competitive forces, coupled with more stringent regulatory framework, have created pressure on
the banks to perform. Efficiency has become critical for banks’ survival and growth. This paper
analyzes the performance of the Indian banking sector, measured and compared in two stages:
Through the construct of productive efficiency using the non-parametric frontier methodology,
DEA and finding the determinants of productive efficiency through TOBIT model. Inputs and
outputs are measured in monetary value and efficiency scores determined for the period 1999-
2003. The study shows that SBI and its group have the highest efficiency, followed by private
banks, and the other nationalized banks. The results are consistent over the period, but efficiency
differences diminish over period of time. The capital adequacy ratio is found to have a significantly
positive impact on the productive efficiency. In this thesis we study about the Productive Efficiency
of Banks & Financial Institution in India.

INTRODUCTION
The performance of the financial institutions is a major concern for both, the regulators and the
policy makers, since it has a strong linkage with the performance of the economy. The financial
sector is reasonably well developed in India. Though small in comparison to, say, USA, it has a
strong banking system, a set of large and small stock and commodity exchanges, strong equity
culture, large number of mutual funds, development institutions like Industrial Development Bank
of India, non-Banking finance companies, other specialized financial institutions, besides a large
informal sector. India, since 1950s chose the mixed economy model, with strong emphasis on
public sector.
The banking sector comprises three major segments: Scheduled Commercial banks, State
Cooperative banks, and other banks like NABARD. The scheduled commercial banks include all
major banks and account for more than 98% of all the assets in the banking sector. The Indian
banking industry, which is a major channel of funding the productive sector, was largely in the
private sector until 1969 when all the major Indian banks in private sector were nationalized.
Another set of banks was nationalized in 1980s. Several private sector banks and some foreign
banks did operate, but on a relatively small scale. By 2009, most banking assets were in public
sector. Facing major economic crisis, India started liberalizing its economy in 2009, reducing or
eliminating controls on many sectors, and allowing private sector to participate where it wasearlier
either denied or restricted. Financial sector, including banking sector was also liberalized. The
government also decided to streamline the capital market, which was hitherto monopolized by one
major stock exchange. A major new stock exchange and new regulatory body were established.
In 2010, the government constituted a committee under Dr. Narsimhan, to study and recommend
reforms for the banking sector. Consequent on the recommendations, a series of reforms were
introduced. The government allowed new private sector to enter the banking sector from 2000,
and further, the foreign banks from 1994. Several new private sector banks were established in
1994-2005 period and several foreign banks established their branches or expanded existing
network. The government also introduced more stringent and rigorous controls in line with Basle- I.
As a result of three major factors, more liberalized banking sector, stronger regulatory framework,
and stronger capital market as a competitor, the banking sector has undergone a major
metamorphosis in the last decade with public sector dominance and protection giving way to a
competitive industry. New opportunities have also arisen in form of fund-based activity, and move
towards universal banking. The Indian banks, which have long been protected, are suspected to be
less efficient. the private sector bank (including foreign banks) deposits have increased from 10.3
percent of total deposits with the scheduled banks in 2000 to 21.8 percentin 2004-2005. The
