مستخلص: Finance is considered as backbone of any business or economic activity. Designing Capital Structure (CS) i.e. deciding the source of fund (borrowed or owned) is one of most controversial and complicated issues faced by managers. Current study is based on panel data of Indian Pharma companies for 10 years (2007-08 to 2016-17). Financial performance is taken as dependent variable and measured with ROE, ROA, EPS and Tobin's Q (TQ). Ratio of Long-term debt to total asset (LDR) and Short-term debt to total asset (SDR) are considered as proxy for financing decision. The data is analyzed using correlation and multiple regression model. The result of the study concludes that borrowed funds affect the financial performance adversely but statistically insignificant. Both debt ratios have negative and significant effect on ROA only. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
