In this globally competitive environment, ethics has become the major area of concern for organizations to eliminate the issues that arise in knowledge sharing. Knowledge is considered to provide a competitive edge to individuals and organizations. This is especially true for industries engaged in the Information and Technology sector. In accordance with the above notion, the current study aims at assessing the role of ethics as a catalyst in affecting knowledge sharing in Indian IT organizations. For this purpose, the study adopted a self-developed questionnaire that was addressed to employees engaged in the IT sector of India. The study utilized SPSS and AMOS to outline the relationship between Ethics and Knowledge Sharing. The findings of the study revealed that the PRIMES model has a direct impact on knowledge creation culture, knowledge-sharing culture, and knowledge storage and knowledge application culture. Moreover, it was also revealed that ethical issues have a negative impact on the three constructs of knowledge sharing that is, knowledge creation culture; knowledge sharing culture; and knowledge storage and knowledge application culture. Personality traits and other constructs of the PRIMES model cannot be controlled by the organization. However, ethical issues can be curbed to enhance the knowledge sharing culture. Prior research has not empirically tested the role of PRIMES model and ethics on knowledge sharing culture
