Published By: CDE on eSS | Published Date: October, 20 , 2011The efficiency of urban water supply in 27 Indian cities are analyzed using data
envelopment analysis (DEA). Cities are grouped by the management structure of
their water utilities. Utilities with greater degree of functional autonomy perform
better, supporting the hypothesis that more autonomy in management leads to better
performance among water utilities. [Working Paper No. 205]. URL:[http://www.cdedse.org/].
