The present investigation was undertaken on mango cv. Dashehari with the objective to find out suitable treatments for better storage life, quality and net profit of mango fruits. The experiment was laid out in factorial completely randomized design comprising of 8 pre and 10 post-harvest treatments. The pre harvest application of GA3 @ 15 ppm + CaCl2 @ 2.0% and post-harvest dipping with GA3 @ 400 ppm + CaCl2 @ 6.0% and hot water + CaCl2 @ 6.0% resulted in minimum physiological loss in weight (10.30 % and 10.67%, respectively) and maximum shelf life (13.25 days), total sugars (18.76% and 17.76%, respectively), ascorbic acid (45.78 mg100g-1 and 46.47mg100g-1, respectively) and β – carotene (1.983 mg100g-1 and 1.971 mg100g-1, respectively).
