Abstract

In recent times, banks in India are indeed facing various challenges from downtrend of deposits growth, lower growth of credit disbursement, target to fulfil the financial inclusion and mounting of non-performing assets, rising of operational cost, the requirement of capital infusion by the government, reconstruction and many more. This study aims to illuminate the key issues surrounding the recent mergers in the Indian banking sector. Further, it measures the technical efficiency of Indian public sector banks by using data envelopment analysis to investigate the pre-merger efficiency of the ten merger banks as well as other banks in the group. The application of the Welch's t-test shows the non-existence of a significant difference in the efficiency scores among the two groups. This study further enumerates the challenges they can face from the different angles of operational, synchronise of products, integrating technology, etc.
