The study is conducted for the period 2004–05 to 2012–13 and includes 11 ‘Special’ Category states and 17 ‘Non-Special’ Category states. The paper finds that while tax transfers have a positive impact on economic growth of the states; grants have a mixed impact on growth. Fixed Effect model was selected to analyze the data.
