The study estimates components of Total Factor Productivity Growth (TFPG) of the 4-digit manufacturing industries of non-metallic mineral products in India during the period from 1998-99 to 2017-18, pre-economic crises period (1998-99 to 2007-08) and post-economic crises period (2008-09 to 2017-18) using frontier approaches, i.e., Data Envelope Analysis (DEA) and Stochastic Frontier Approach (SFA). The components of TFPG are technological progress (TP), technical efficiency change (TEC) and economic scale change (SC). The study found that the growth rates of TFP in almost all the 4-digit manufacturing industries of non-metallic mineral products in India declined during the post-economic crises period (post-financial meltdown period) and the decline in TFPG of those industries during that period is mainly accounted for by the decline in technological progress (TP) of the same as per SFA and by the decline in technical efficiency change (TEC) and scale change (SC) of them as per DEA.Keywords
