The present disclosure provides method for albino free shoot regeneration from anthers in indica rice. The method involves selecting plant material bearing anthers at a developmental stage amenable to androgenesis, induction for callusing, the compact yellow calli obtained are cultured further in conditions favorable for development of shoot and root. The developed plantlet are acclimatized and subsequently transferred to net house. Modification of culture conditions involving incubation, micronutrients and plant growth regulators along with carbohydrate led to produce high green shoot regeneration in indica ricewhich is free from albinos.
