Abstract

This study has investigated the influence of the stock liquidity (measured by Amihud’s illiquidity) of a company on its capital structure using the top 100 non-finance firms listed in the NSE from 2010-11 to 2019-20. Using the fixed-effect panel regression model, the study has established that illiquidity has a significant affirmative influence on the book and market leverage. Furthermore, the findings reveal that turnover representing the business size and return on assets have adverse associations with both book and market leverage. Moreover, asset tangibility bears a positive influence on book leverage. The results endorse the usefulness of the notion of Peckingorder in the context of Indian companies.
