saving in six South Asian countries including Sri Lanka, Nepal,
Pakistan, Bangladesh, India and Bhutan. Panel data were used for
econometrics analysis of the selected countries from the year 1989-2013
duly obtained from the official website of World Bank. Different kinds
of econometrics techniques were applied for analysis such as
correlation matrix, descriptive statistics and fixed effects model in this
research paper. Results of fixed effect model indicate that inflation, tax
and gross domestic product have statistically significant effect on the
gross domestic savings while per capita income, interest, money supply
growth and age dependency ratio have non-significant effect on gross
domestic saving. Inflation, tax revenue and gross domestic product
showed positive effect on gross domestic saving. Based on results of
this research paper it is recommended that these selected countries
should adopt proper policies for financial institutions in order to
encourage saving behavior among their citizens. | Keywords : | | National Saving, Gross domestics saving, Inflation, Per
