The experiment was laid out in Randomized Block Design (RBD) with 13 treatments and three replication. Observations were recorded on juice per cent, peel per cent, total soluble solids, acidity, ascorbic acid, total sugars, reducing sugars and non-reducing sugars. Among all the treatments, Treatment T₁₁, GA₃ (50 ppm) + ZnSO₄ (1%) + FeSO₄ (1%) recorded maximum TSS (8.57⁰B), Ascorbic acid (30.35 mg/100 ml juice), juice per cent (50.60%), total sugars (1.825%), reducing sugars (0.90%),non-reducing sugar (0.92%) and maximum per cent acidity (7.07%) and minimum peel per cent (25.21%).
