Title: EFFICIENCY ANALYSIS OF SELECTED PUBLIC AND PRIVATE SECTOR BANKS IN INDIA THROUGH DATA ENVELOPMENT ANALYSIS Authors: Nandi, Jayanta Kumar Abstract: The banking industry especially Indian public and private sector banks looked upon as the pivot around which the economic activities revolve. Banking system plays an important role in a nation’s economy. Contribution of banking institution is highly remarkable and is indispensable in a modern society. An efficient banking practice plays a crucial role in the economic development of a country and forms the core of the money market in an advanced country as well as developing country like India. An attempt has been made in this study to evaluate the relative performance of selected public and private sector banks (DMUs) in India through Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) for the period 2011-12. DEA is typically used to measure the technical efficiency (TE) between 0 to 1 ranges. A careful study of DEA analysis of the selected banks under study highlights the fact that by improved handling of operating expenses and interest costs and by boosting banking incomes, the less efficient banks can successfully achieve optimum performance level. Since this study attempts to maximise output, so output oriented Data Envelopment Analysis is used. The result of the study shows that 7, 11 and 8 banks are found efficient when their efficiency is measured under CRS, PTE and SE method respectively. Description: 17-27

Title: EXPLAINING THE DEMAND FOR DOMESTIC ALTERNATIVE POWER BACK-UP SYSTEM – A LOGISTIC REGRESSION APPROACH Authors: Roy, Arijit Abstract: Power supply is a basic input required for progress of a civil society. Growing imbalance between demand and supply of power has resulted in a very steep increase in the demand for alternative domestic power backup system like battery and inverter, mini generator set etc. Specially in the urban areas. In statistical case studies where categorical results such as “successfulunsuccessful”, “present-not present”, “ill-not ill” are obtained as a result of data evaluation, the logistic regression is a rather suitable statistical method. In this paper, we have tried to estimate the probability of having an alternative domestic power generation system in an urban set up in West Bengal using logistic regression approach. Primary data were collected in Nadia district of West Bengal during 2009-2010. It has been observed that the level of per capita income, the duration of average daily power cut and presence of children in a family pursuing education do have a positive and significant influence on the demand for domestic alternative power back-up system.

Title: MEASUREMENT OF FARM LEVEL ECONOMIC EFFICIENCY AN APPROACH TO UNIT COST OF PRODUCTION Authors: Nandi, Arun Kumar; Basu, Dr Dipika Abstract: A methodology is developed for measurement of farm level overall productive efficiency in terms of unit cost of production on application of three sigma rule to reduce the gap between theory and practice in this regard. The study analyses unit cost of production to examine resource use patterns and farm efficiency across different size groups of farms in paddy production in West Bengal based on farm level primary and secondary data. It appears that the bottom class (i.e., below 1 acre) is least efficient, whereas top size class (i.e., 4 acre and above) is most efficient. Minimization of unit cost is very important for the farmers for augmentation of their economic efficiency and profitability and for the sake of sustainability of the farming system. There is a scope of reduction of unit cost in West Bengal agriculture and also for the country as a whole. Description: 84-100

Title: CORPORATE GOVERNANCE AND FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE OF INDIAN FIRMS Authors: Gugnani, Ritika Abstract: This paper investigated the relationship between corporate governance and performance of listed Indian manufacturing firms between the periods of 2005 to 2012. Many Indian companies have improved their internal governance structures after implementation of Clause 49.The influence of board size, board composition, duality in terms of board leadership and promoter’s holding are examined in current Indian scenario judged in relation to two sets of financial performance .The survey of literature is used as qualitative measure for examining the relation of sampled variables and ordinary least square (OLS) method is used as quantitative tool for examining the relationship. This study hypotheses negative relation of board size and CEO status with financial performance and positive relation of corporate performance with board independency and insiders (promoters) holding. The findings suggest that profit margin is the only financial performance measure which is significantly related with internal governance structures. Description: 118-133
