“…The results in columns 1 and 5 suggest that EPU is positively and significantly associated with Debt FF1 in the pre-COVID period. This finding is consistent with the study of Bajaj et al . (2021), which also reported a positive relationship for Indian listed firms.…”

“…However, this study did not investigate the impact of the pandemic. A study on listed Indian firms from 2009 to 2018 indicated a positive impact of EPU on leverage (Bajaj et al ., 2021).

“…This study advances our understanding of changes in leverage dynamics (Bajaj, Kashiramka, & Singh, 2021) in response to the emergence of the pandemic and contributes to the literature on the determinant of changes in leverage adjustment. An extension of this study will be to investigate firms’ alternative sources of financing and changes in the cost of capital induced by the COVID-19 pandemic.…”

“…We employ forward orthogonal deviations to derive the transformed equations since our study uses unbalanced panel data and has to account for data loss from missing observations (Roodman, 2009). The two-step system GMM provides unbiased results and deals with endogeneity and autocorrelation issues in dynamic settings (Bajaj et al ., 2021; Suman and Singh, 2022). For all the estimations, the number of instruments is lower than the groups (Roodman, 2009).…”
