Research Methods: Twenty-three numbers of paddy genotypes (Oryza sativa L.) considered and were assessed through kharif 2021 and its character and the magnitude of variability; heritability (broad sense) and genetics advance for thirteen quantitative traits were tested. Research Findings: High PCV, GCV, heritability and Genetic advance percent mean reported in flag leaf length (20.27, 22.39, 81 and 37.81), number of filled spiklets per panicle (32.37, 37.38, 75 and 57.76), 1000 grain weight (28.75, 29.96, 92 and 56.84) and yield per hill (23.04, 25.96, 78 and 42.14). From the ANOVA it reflected that the differences among twenty-three genotypes results showed that significant differences and amount of variation present between the genotypes for most of the characters under study.

Originality and value: High significant amount of variability was recorded for grain breadth, yield per hill and 1000 grain weight in both replication and genotypes. The traits plant height, days to 50% flowering, flag leaf length, flag leaf width, panicle length, culm length, number of panicles per hill, number of spiklets per panicle, number of filled spiklets per panicle, grain length, grain breadth, 1000 grain weight and yield per hill exhibited significant differences between genotypes. Which recommended that this trait would take action to selection owed their higher genetic variability and transmissibility. Genetic advance was recorded for number of filled spikelets per panicle (75%) with high value of heritability.

Limitations: Some other traits also have direct effect on yield that is not quality traits.
