This study proposes to examine the technical efficiency of New and Old Private Sector Banks in India in recent years …, and Indian Banks are no exception to this change. The efficient operation of banks has become an important issue in India … relative technical efficiency. The Efficiency Scores of the banks are also decomposed into Pure Technical Efficiency (PTE) and …
