The experimental material consisting of twenty-one genotypes of onion maintained at the DOGR Nasik Maharashtra were utilized. Among genotypes evaluated OC 18-75 performed better for most of the characters like plant height (56.8 cm), polar bulb diameter (6.4 cm), total yield (279.75 q/ha), marketable yield (270.75 q/ha) and C-grade bulb (38.8%). Genotype OC 18-91 recorded maximum number of leaves (9.2 cm), OC 18-68 showed maximum equatorial diameter (6.4 cm) and OC 18-89 highest TSS (13.06%).
