This paper scrutinizes the relationship between gross domestic saving, gross capital formation and economic growth in India during a period from 1992 to 2018. The results of cointegration analysis reveal that there is a long-run relationship between selected variables; however, the observations from the results of Granger causality test indicate positive relation between saving, investment and economic growth in India. The findings explicate that saving and investment directed growth is coming from the private sector.
