Overall in multilocational trials, ART, station and national trials, IPH732 had a mean yield of 0.94 t/ha, which was 49 and 41% more than ICPH8 and ICPL87, respectively. IPH732 has an indeterminate growth habit, matures in 115-120 days, and is suitable for irrigated and rainfed conditions. It has good cooking quality and seeds contain 22.3% protein. It was released for cultivation in Tamil Nadu as CoH1.
