The performance of twenty chilli hybrids were studied for quality characteristics using Randomized Block Design with three replications.The hybrids showed significant differences for all the characters studied. The maximum chlorophyll content were found in the fruits of Arka Harita (2.40 mg/g). Ascorbic acid (212.58 mg/100 g) was observed highest in CO (Ch)-1. Total soluble solids of 6.67 °B was registered in Arka Gagan and CHT-202 which was highest among all the hybrids. The hybrid H-43 had maximum pungency of 1.23 per cent. Reducing, non-reducing and total sugars were found maximum in the hybrid CHT-188 (2.09 %, 2.87 % and 4.96 %, respectively). The differences among the hybrids for quality characteristics is mainly attributed to the genetic makeup of the individual hybrid.
