Abstract
This paper deals with the short and long-run relationship between public debt and economic growth for 1991-2020 by employing the autoregressive distributed lag (ARDL) model in India. It was found that there was a significant negative impact of internal and total public debt on the GDP of India. However, the external debt of India was not impacted the GDP in the short run. In the long run, there was no such relationship with GDP. The bound test of the long-run coefficient also did not find any significant long-run relationship among the variables. This study recommended that government should avoid unnecessary debt and take steps to maintain economic stability by minimizing the debt.
