The sign of the coefficient of the real stock prices is positive and statistically significant corroborating the wealth effect. Similarly, for the real broad money demand function, the statistical tests results corroborate existence of a long-run demand for broad money. But, unlike the demand for narrow money, the real stock prices have negative sign and statistically significant in the VECM vector, indicating a substitution effect of reducing the demand for broad money when real stock prices increase. Apart from the capital and money markets, and the real GDP, the foreign exchange markets also have a role in determining the real money demand .Therefore, the money has not withered away despite financial innovations, and the monetary aggregates should be again recognized as important monetary policy indicator variables in India and other developing countries ..
