I am not sure about sample bias issue in xtabond2 but Windmeijer has
proposed a small sample correction which is incorporated in -xtabond2
as http://www.stata.com/statalist/archive/2011-03/msg00368.html
suggest.
So I guess it is the only stata resource available at hand, Other
proficient in the area might suggest how to implement.
Sorry I have just put you on the track many times.

> Thank you Anees for your help. I have read all the relevant literature in detail. I have used xtabond2 for my dataset, now I want to analyse the subsample for something. The problem is the number of observations is 156 in the sub sample and I cant apply xtabond2 because of small sample size. I have applied xtivreg2 and now I want to correct the estimates for small sample size bias (Windmiejer's correction).
