Abstract: \nThe state-of-the-art technologies made it possible to reach the realms of fusion between two complex nuclei that offer an opportunity to explore a diverse spectrum of fusion phenomena. In this article, we have reported the influence of positive Q-value neutron transfer (PQNT) channels in fusion dynamics. Significant enhancement in sub-barrier fusion cross section has been observed for the 28Si+158Gd as compared to 30Si+140Ce and other similar systems with nearby mass asymmetry. Current findings include a comparison of the fusion excitation function of multiple systems on a reduced scale. The study sheds light on the influence of PQNT channels and deformation in nuclei on the sub-barrier fusion phenomenon. Further, fusion barrier parameters (barrier height and radius) extracted from the measured data demonstrate a good agreement with the empirical parameterization and proximity potential models.\n
