Abstract This paper presents a new modified technique for order preference by similarity to ideal solution (M-TOPSIS) approach for unraveling stochastic fuzzy multi-level multi-objective fractional decision making problem (ML-MOFDM) problem. In the proposed model the coefficients and the scalars of the fractional objectives have a fuzzy nature. The right-hand sides are stochastic parameters also, both of the lefthand side coefficients and the tolerance measures are fuzzy kind. In this manner, the deterministic-crisp ML-MOFDM model of stochastic fuzzy ML-MOFDM can be gotten utilizing chance constrained strategy with predominance plausibility criteria and the 𝛼-cut methodology. In literature, almost all works on multi-level fractional programming are the crisp version, in which they convert the fractional functions into a linear one using a first order Taylor series which causes rounding off error. The proposed M-TOPSIS approach presents a new method for solving such problem without approximating or changing the nature of the problem. An algorithm to clear up the M-TOPSIS approach, just as illustrative numerical model is displayed.

1 Introduction Multi-level programming problems (MLPP) emerge in multi-leveled associations including numerous decision leaders (DL) to settle decentralized programming issues where each DL controls a lot of choice factors autonomously [1–5]. DL must have a bargaining and agreeable inspiration for assurance of an answer for the general advantage of the association at which each DL gains a minimum standard of achievement. In the course of the most recent couple of years, fast improvement in thinking through MLPP [1, 3, 6–11] has been seen and a lot of strategies have been displayed. The utilization of the idea of the fuzzy set theory to MLPP for getting satisfactory choices was first displayed by Lai in [5]. Interactive fuzzy programming for bi-level fractional programming problems was exhibited in [12]. Fuzzy goal programming (FGP) algorithm was created by Baky for solving MLPP [3]. MLPP were starting late focused by Chen and Chen [6]. FGP model and fuzzy goals of the top level decision variables for solving MLPP has been introduced by Pramanik and Roy [8]. Th
