In this paper a system dynamics model of working of a public sector in India is presented and it behaviour has been analysed. The public sector in India are suffering from low productivity, overstaffing and excess capacity. The quality of managerial input, selection process and compensation offered and flexibility in decision making are some of the major causes of under performance. The state owned enterprises have often not to compete with private sectors and the growth in market share is not so emphasized.Apart from this the motivational cycle of the employee working in public sector undertaking is not well pronounced. The socialistic norms of control, which substantially affects the security need over a need pattern of the employee, which is essentially the need pattern closely correlated with free enterprise systems. The situation of conflict arises in case of a state owned company working under a mixed economy systems as obtained in India. This causes low productivity.The paper concludes that each unit should be treated as a separate autonomous body, with flexibility in decision making, better managerial talents have to be attracted. The level of competition should be well pronounced if at all productivity has to be improved. Productivity awareness has to come from the top political circle of the Government and productivity should be treated as national gain.
