Abstract: The research was conducted on effect of different levels of pruning and plant growth regulators on growth, yield and quality of pomegranate (Punica granatum L.) Cv. Bhagwa andwas carried out at Gurrampode village of Nalgonda District, Telangana. The experiment was laid out in a factorial completely randomized block design with three replications and twenty treatments. Among different levels of pruning, (pruning 10 cm, pruning 20 cm, pruning at 30 cm and control (Unpruned) in hasta bahar crop of pomegranate, pruning at 30 cm recorded maximum number of shoots emerged per branch (11.80) shoot length (36.37 cm) fruit weight (210.26 g) and plant growth regulators (NAA @ 25 ppm, NAA @ 50 ppm, GA3 @ 25 ppm, GA3 @ 50 ppm and water spray) in hasta bahar crop of pomegranate, GA3 @ 50 ppm recorded maximum number of shoots emerged per branch (12.75), shoot length (36.91 cm), fruit weight (218.91g), significantly high yield per tree (11.68 kg), yield per hectare (9.69 t) were noticed in GA3 @ 50 ppm.. The interaction between different levels of pruning and plant growth regulators has shown significant results, maximum number of shoots emerged per branch (14.66) shoot length (42.08 cm) fruit weight (255.66 g) yield per tree (13.16 kg), and yield per hectare (10.92 t).was recorded in pruning at 30 cm in combination with GA3 @ 50 ppm.
