The experimental evidences of the present investigation point out that among different IBA concentrations; 1500 ppm IBA gave maximum shoot growth, root growth, percentage of rooted cuttings and survival percentage of rooted cuttings over rest of the treatments. IBA 1000 ppm effective with respect to different root and shoot characters.
