The field experiment conducted with twenty genotypes of Indian Mustard (Brassica juncea L.) with motive to discover path coefficient analysis and came to a conclusion that research presented positive direct effect with characters like no. of silique/plant, days to 50% flowering, test weight, number of seed/silique, biological yield wherein seed yield/plant showed highest values thereafter maximum negative direct effect displayed by length of main raceme for genotypic characters. Phenotypic positive direct effect expressed for characters like no. primary branches/plant, days to 50% flowering, no. of seeds/silique, days to maturity, no. of siliquae/plant, test weight, biological yield/plant whereas negative direct effect was unveiled by length of main raceme, no. of secondary branches/plant, plant height
