This article proposes a method for solving intuitionistic fuzzy solid transportation problems IFSTPs in which only the transportation costs are represented in terms of intuitionistic fuzzy numbers IFNs. The remaining parameters, namely: supply, demand and conveyance capacity, are all considered into crisp numbers. This type of STP is called a type-2 IFSTP. When solving the real life solid transportation problems STPs those tend to face the uncertainty state as well as hesitation due to many uncontrollable factors. To deal with uncertainty and hesitation many authors have suggested the intuitionistic fuzzy representation for the data. In this article, the author tried to categorise the STPs under the uncertain environment. He formulates the intuitionistic fuzzy STPs and utilizes the triangular intuitionistic fuzzy number TIFN to deal with uncertainty and hesitation. The PSK P.Senthil Kumar method for finding an intuitionistic fuzzy optimal solution for fully intuitionistic fuzzy transportation problem FIFTP is extended to solve the type-2 IFSTP and the optimal objective value of type-2 IFSTP is obtained in terms of TIFN. The main advantage of this method is that the optimal solution of type-2 IFSTP is obtained without using the basic feasible solution and the method of testing optimality. Moreover, the proposed method is computationally very simple and easy to understand. A case study is presented to illustrate the procedure of the proposed method.
