Abstract: We examine the impact of financial reforms on corporate financing decisions of Indian firms using the fixed effects panel estimator. The impact on the leverage and debt maturity ratio is negative while a positive effect is observed on debt specialisation. The impact is greater for priority firms compared to non-priority firms.
