The experiment consisted of two tomato variety-Amrutha (V<sub>1</sub>) and Abhilash (V<sub>2</sub>) with six treatments and five levels of Gibberellic acid (12.5 ppm, 25 ppm, 37.5 ppm, 50 ppm and 62.5 ppm), arranged in randomized block design with three replications. The highest plant height, Number of leaves, Leaf area, No. of Branches, Shoot girth (cm), Number of fruits and Fresh fruit weight has been observed and total soluble solid (TSS) was estimated for GA<sub>3 </sub>62.5 ppm.
