In this study, we utilized nonlinear autoregressive distributed lag (NARDL) model and test whether or not the effect of variations in the gross domestic product on energy use is symmetric or asymmetric from the context of India. Using time series data over 1971-2014, the findings depict that the change in the gross domestic product has a symmetric effect on energy use both in short-run and the long-run. Our conclusions infer that there is no asymmetrical association between GDP and energy use, leading to support the symmetric impact of GDP on energy use.</em></p>}, number={1}, journal={Journal of Applied Economics and Business Studies}, author={Ahmad, Manzoor and Khan, Zia Ullah and Khan, Shehzad}, year={2017}, month={Dec.}, pages={1-10} }
