Abstract: In this paper, a zero-truncated Poisson-Garima distribution (ZTPGD) has been introduced by taking the zero-truncated version of Poisson-Garima distribution (PGD) of shanker [1]. The moments about origin and moments about mean, coefficients of variation, skewness and kurtosis, and index of dispersion of ZTPGD have been obtained. The method of moment and the method of maximum likelihood estimation have been discussed for estimating the parameter of ZTPGD. Goodness of fit of ZTPGD has been discussed with two real data sets and the fit has been compared with that of zero-truncated Poisson distribution (ZTPD) and zero-truncated Poisson-Lindley distribution (ZTPLD).
