In this context the current study compares the October 23 2018 performance of the selected private and public sector banks in India on a five year time horizon Accepted November 8 2018 Available online in order to discern any changes in the performance over a period of time. First the performance November 8 2018 of the selected banks are examined in terms of management efficiency perspective using a Multi- Keywords Criteria Decision Making MCDM technique such as Combinative Distance-based Assessment Multi-Criteria Decision Making CODAS when an Entropy method is also employed for determining criteria weight. The study MCDM also applies k-Means Clustering for checking consistency of performance based ranking with Entropy asset management efficiency. Finally the paper delves into the relationship between financial Combinative Distance-based and market performance. The study has found consistent results and observed private sector Assessment CODAS banks perform better than the public sector. k-Means Clustering Performance Indian Banks 2019 by the authors licensee Growing Science Canada 1. .
