Abstract: This paper proposes an interval valued trapezoidal intuitionistic fuzzy (IVTIF) decision making model for multi criteria group decision making (MCGDM) problem by taking into consideration that the criteria weights of each decision maker may differ with respect to each other when criteria weights are unknown prior. In this process, a new method to find the criteria weight based on alternatives performance and Einstein weighted averaging operator on IVTIFSs is defined. Further, the properties of interval valued trapezoidal intuitionistic fuzzy Einstein weighted averaging (IVITFEWA) operator are proved. The proposed method is illustrated by taking a numerical example. From the results it is observed that the proposed method can effectively rank the alternatives compared to existing methods.
