The present investigation entitled “Studies on Phytochemical evaluation of tamarind (Tamarindus indica L.) Genotypes prevailing in Eastern dry zone of Karnataka” was carried out in the laboratory, Department of Horticulture, College of Agriculture, GKVK, Bangalore, during the year 2018 and 2019. The study was carried out with 22 treatments (genotypes) consist of ripe fruits collected from selected trees of tamarind exist in Department of Horticulture, College of Agriculture, GKVK, Bangalore, under Randomized Block Design with three replications. Higher Ascorbic acid content of pulp recorded in T19 [GKTAM-19 (11.35 mg/100g)], and lower Ascorbic acid content of pulp was recorded in T9 [GKTAM-9 (5.67 mg/100g)]. Higher Tartaric acid content of pulp was noticed in T1 [GKTAM-1 (12.15 %)] and lower Tartaric acid content of pulp was noticed in T6 [GKTAM-6 (6.21 %)].
