This study investigates the effect of real earnings management (REM) on firms’ future performance in India. The sample comprises a balanced panel of 108 non-financial firms belonging to 21 industries (as per the 2-digit NIC classification code), from 2006 to 2018. The proxy for REM given by...

The present study examines dynamic relation between stock index and exchange rate by using the daily data for India. The study uses the unit root and cointegration tests to test for the long run relationship between the two variables. The study also uses linear and nonlinear granger causality...

The present study examines dynamic relation between stock index and exchange rate by using the daily data for India. The empirical evidence suggests that there is no long-run relationship; how-ever, there is bidirectional causality between stock index and exchange rates. The findings of the...

Biobutanol can become the replacement of petroleum gasoline in near future. However, economic feasibility of biobutanol production from ABE fermentation is suffering due to the unavailability of cheap feedstocks, production inhibition and inefficient product recovery processes. Here, economic...

This study examines the dynamic causal (linear as well as non-linear) relationship between trading volume and return and between volatility and returns. We have used the vector autoregression based Granger causality framework to examine the linear causality, while the non-linear causality have...

Biobutanol will become an attractive, economic and sustainable fuel as petroleum oil leads towards expensive fuel due to diminishing oil reserves and an increase of green house gases in the atmosphere. The major challenges in biobutanol production are low butanol titer, availability of...

The purpose of this study is to investigate the long and short-run relation between stock index and exchange rates for India. The study uses cointegration methodology to test for the long-run relationship. Empirical results suggest that there is no long-run relationship between them....

In this study, a vector autoregression (VAR) model with time-varying parameters (TVP) to predict the daily Indian rupee (INR)/US dollar (USD) exchange rates for the Indian economy is developed. The method is based on characterization of the TVP as an optimal control problem. The methodology is a...

Scaled energy, apparent stress, seismic moments, stress drops and corner frequencies are measured through the Levenberg–Marquardt nonlinear inversion modeling of S-wave displacement spectra for 489 selected earthquakes (M <Subscript> w </Subscript> 2.05–5.52) from the 2001 M <Subscript> w </Subscript> 7.7 Bhuj earthquake sequence.
