Book excerpt: The main aim of this paper is to assess the revenue efficiency scores of scheduled commercial banks in India categorized across bank ownership. The nature of Return to Scale (RTS) of public, private and foreign banks is also analyzed. The paper further identifies the number of banks operating as leaders and laggards in the banking sector according to revenue efficiency and its components. Revenue efficiency of banks is calculated by employing the non-parametric approach, namely, Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA). The efficiency scores have further been decomposed into technical and allocative efficiency. The differences in the efficiency scores across bank ownership pattern have also been examined by applying Panel Tobit Regression both over the reformatory as well as post-reform years of banking industry. Indian scheduled commercial banks, in all three sectors--public, private and foreign--have never achieved full revenue efficiency score of 1 in any of the years under study. The ownership-wise results for revenue efficiency and its components reveal that public sector banks are in the first position in reformatory era, followed by foreign banks and then private sector banks. In the post-reform period, private sector banks seemed to have picked up their performance in comparison to public and foreign banks, but the differences were insignificant as depicted by the results of Panel Tobit Regression.
