Attained mean heights, weights and skeletal maturity assessed by the TW2 method of well-off North Indian (Chandigarh) children ranging in age from 6 years to 12 years (96 girls) and 14 years (202 boys), were compared with British Standards. The mean height of girls remained close to the 50th centile and their weights to the 25th centile. Boys' mean heights and weights were close to the 50th centile up to age 9 years; later they slowly shifted to the 25th. Girls' RUS skeletal maturity remained between the 50th and 75th centiles of the British standards while boys, though having a tendency to be advanced at certain ages, were practically at par with the British 50th centile. The pattern of carpal maturity was different; girls reached full carpal maturity at the same age as British girls, but boys showed retardation.
