Abstract: The present investigation entitled ‘‘Study on Naphthalene acetic acid and Gibberellic acid on growth and yield of Capsicum, Capsicum annum (L.) cv. Indra under shade net condition’’ was carried out at the vegetable research farm of the Department of Horticulture, Sam Higginbottom Institute of Agriculture, Technology and Sciences (Deemed to-be University), Allahabad during the Rabi season of 2014–2015, the experiment was laid out in Randomized Block Design having 9 treatments with 3 replications. The experiment revealed that NAA @ 60 ppm increased plant height (120.59cm), number of branches (16.05), plant spread (92.57cm), days to first flowering (32.51), number of flower per plants (11.83), fruit weight (169.66g), no of fruit per plant (9.87), no of seeds per fruit (110.78), fruit yield per plant (1.67kg), fruit yield per plot (15.07kg), fruit yield per hectare (69.76t), With the above result it can be concluded that NAA @ 60 ppm is very much beneficial for the growth and yield of capsicum.
