Summary: Probability laws defined on a finite Abelian group and stable with respect to some group of actions are studied. It is shown that the probability law f(x) of a distribution is stable with respect to a group G if and only if the support B of the law f(x) satisfies the following conditions:
a) gB is a coset with respect to some subgroup of the group A for any g in G; b) GB is a subgroup of A.
