Chilli is an importance crop which has position to increase economic earning for grower. The Twenty genotypes were grown and studies for phenotypic correlation, Genotypic correlation and path coefficient of traits at the vegetable Research Farm in Department of Horticulture, Allahabad Agricultural Institute-Deemed University, Allahabad. The estimate of phenotypic coefficient of variation was higher than the genotypic coefficient of variation for almost all the traits. The magnitude of genotypic correlation was higher than the phenotypic correlation for all the characters. The most important trait total yield per plant was significantly and positively correlated with green fruit yield, fruit length and fruit diameter, weight of red ripe fruit. No of seeds/fruit, weight of seeds/ fruit, ascorbic acid, oleoresin, and capsaicin content. The important traits green fruit yield was significantly and negatively correlated with days to flowering, days to 50% flowering, days to first green fruit harvest and days to ripe fruit harvest. Number of seeds/fruit, weight of seeds/ fruits, average weight of green fruit, and ascorbic acid had positive direct effect on yield at both and phenotypic levels. Based on performance SM-20, JCA-9, Pusa Jawala, Utakal Ragini and Kashi anmol exhibited high fruit yield per plant. Among all the genotypes SM-20 was found to be with highest yield i.e. 168.42 g per plant.
