Abstract
The study estimates and decomposes the
sources of productivity change of the 4-
digit food, beverages and tobacco industries
in India during 1998/99 – 2017/18,
pre-economic crises period (1998-99 to
2007-08) and post-economic crises period
(2008-09 to 2017-18) using Data Envelop
Analysis (DEA) and Stochastic Frontier Approach
(SFA). The study decomposes the
source s of TFPG into technological
change (TP), technical efficiency change
(TEC) and economic scale change (SC). It
was found that the growth rates of TFP in
most of the 4-digit industries of food, beverages
and tobacco products in India have
declined during the post financial meltdown
period (2008/09 – 2017/18) and the
decline in TFPG of them during the period
is mainly accounted for by the decline in
technological progress (TP).
