Using annual data on scheduled commercial banks for the period 1996-2004, the paper evaluates the validity of this claim in the Indian context. The empirical evidence reveals that the Indian banking system operates under competitive conditions and earns revenues as if under monopolistic competition Bibliography Includes bibliographical references (pages 23-25) Notes English Print version record Subject Banks and banking -- India Banks and banking -- Deregulation -- India Competition -- India Banks and banking Banks and banking -- Deregulation Competition India Form Electronic book Author Ghosh, Saibal, author.
