The details of the patients like morbidity, mean hospital stay, Perinatal mortality and Morbidity was retrieved. Result: Trial of scar was given in 85 patients, out of which 40% delivered, 51(60%) required repeat caesarean section. Out of 156 patients, 71(45.5%) cases were taken up for repeat caesarean section without trial of scar. Failed trial of scar in 16 study cases, required repeat LSCS in view of scar dehiscence or scar tenderness. Intraoperative dehiscence: 3.2%, Scar rupture: 0.64%. 31.25% patients had intra operative dehiscence on whom repeat caesarean section performed with provisional diagnosis of scar dehiscence. Conclusion: It can be concluded from our study that trial of labour after caesarean (TOLAC) in selected cases has great importance in the present era of the rising rate of primary caesarean section.
