Abstract	The India based Neutrino Observatory (INO)[1] is aimed to carry out measurements on atmospheric neutrinos and its related issues using its primary detector the Iron Calorimeter (ICAL). In order to fulfil the physics goals, the experiment requires 29000 RPCs and associated electronics. However, before embarking this amount of RPCs and commissioning of the electronics, it is essential to perform an R&D for the optimisation of various parameters so as to have improved performance of the ICAL. In view of same, a characterization study has been conducted to find the suitable electrodes for the RPCs. Also, various RPC gas compositions have been studied to optimise RPC operation parameters like leakage current, count rate, efficiency, time resolution and charge spectra. In addition to this, an ASIC based front-end read-out, HARDROC has also been proposed, integrated and commissioned to deal with the huge number of electronic channels.
