Conventional form of examining the research growth of the institution is the application of  metric analysis on their published works. This paper is the consequence of the study carried  out on the research publications of Botanical Survey of India, a Research Institute on Indian  plant taxonomical works. The significance in terms of the relative growth rate, attained by the  Institute was provided with graphical representation. The subject wise research production  and area need to be strengthened by the institute were emphasized. Comparative study of the  regional centers of BSI with that of their headquarters to reveal their contribution status was  attained.
