Hypertension is one of the leading causes of the global burden of diseases. Hypertension is defined as an average SBP≥140 mmHg and DBP≥90 mmHg without antihypertensive medication. It has been recognized as the most common cardiovascular disorder and a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in both developed and developing countries. The changes in serum lipid profile levels should be actively investigated, and a few studies have established relation between hypertension and hyperlipidemia.101 subjects (31–60 yrs age) were selected, 52 controls and 49 cases on basis of their blood pressure recording..The study showed a positive relation between lipid profile and blood pressure in hypertensive patients  which are statistically significant.(p < 0.0001).. From the present study we can conclude that  increase in plasma lipid level has direct effect on blood pressure
