This paper attempts to evaluate the efficiency of Indian banks using data envelopment analysis (DEA) models. The main focus of this study is to assess whether the management has any significant impact during the efficiency evaluation. The DEA used to examine the technical efficiency of public, private, and foreign sector banks under homogenous and heterogeneous environments to check whether the working environment plays a vital role in efficiency evaluation. The results have shown public sector banks are affecting more due to ownership. The public and private sector banks have shown significant improvement in their efficiency scores when evaluating under a heterogeneous environment. The foreign sector is free of ownership impact due to their small scale banking business in India. © 2020, Research Publication. All rights reserved.
