The aim of this paper is to investigate the impact of ICT capital services on production of seven major economic sectors by using a panel data method over the period 2001-2007. Findings state that the non-ICT capital stock and labor force have positive impact on production. The production elasticity of ICT capital service is between 0.07-0.098, but this coefficient is less than the production elasticity of non-ICT capital (about 0.2). Thus, the paper concludes that ICT affects the production and it seems that the "Productivity Paradox" does not appear in Iran economy.
