The debate on the role of money supply in the determination of nominal income and price has remained one of the important issues in thehistory of economic thought. The Monetarists and the Keynesians have diametrically opposite views on this important issue; theMonetarists firmly believe that changes in money stocks change nominal income as well as prices while the Keynesians think that moneysupply does not play any important role in the determination of nominal income and prices. The empirical study undertaken so far tounderstand these relationships have been inconclusive. In this paper an attempt has been made to determine the direction of causalitybetween money supply and prices. We have taken monthly data on two alternative measures of Money supply viz. Narrow Money (M1)and Broad Money (M3) and a measure of Price Level viz. the Whole Sale Price Index (WPI) for the Indian economy from June 1953 toDecember 2005. Before applying the Granger’s test of causality, we have used the ratio-to-moving average – multiplicative method todeseasonalize the series and have converted them into natural logarithmic form for reducing variations in them. We have also used theAugmented Dickey Fuller (ADF) test for this purpose. For deciding about the lag order, 5 criteria viz. LR, FPE, AIC, SC and HQ havebeen used. Then pair wise Granger Causality tests have been performed. Our results have been compared with the conclusions drawn inthe earlier studies and it was found that our main conclusion is consistent with the conclusions of the majority of the studies that thereexists reverse Granger Causality i.e. price to money supply as far as the Indian economy is concerned.
