The study deals with the length-weight relationship and relative condition factor (Kn) of
mahseer, Tor putitora reared for 150 days in ponds. The logarithmic form of equation for
the relationship was found to be logW = -1.727+2.875logL or W=O.Ol875U·875
• The
graphical presentation of the parabolic and logarithmic forms showed respectively the
curvilinear and linear relationships between length and weight of the fish. The mean
value (±sd) of relative condition factor was found to be 0.95±0.12. The exponential value
'b' was found to be 2.96 and the coefficient of correlation 'r' was 0.965, which showed
strong and highly correlated relationships between length and weight of the fish
