The study examines the impact of stock market development on economic growth by panel data techniques by fixed effects and random effects by applying Hausamn test. Overall results suggests that there is positive and significant impact of stock market development on economic growth. The findings show a positive relationship between stock market development and economic growth. This study also measures the exact impact of stock market development on growth of economy by control variables such as financial depth (FD), investment (INV), foreign direct investment (FDI), trade openness (TO) and inflation (INF) but stock market development which is TR (ratio of total value traded to the total value of listed shares) has insignificant relationship with economic growth.
