The paper compares the operation efficiency of the public service banks against the private service banks post-merger. The paper also makes an attempt to rank the individual banks in the years before and after mergers. Hence, the study taken a period of five years from 2017 to 2022. The researchers employed the data envelopment analysis (DEA) methodology to calculate the efficiency. From this viewpoint, the merger of the public service banks enhanced their performance but still lagged behind the private sector banks.
