5. Summary
Application of group theoretical methods to a study of the effect of symmetry on the physical properties of the 32 crystal classes as given earlier by Bhagavantam has been extended in this paper to a similar study of the magnetic properties of the 90 magnetic crystal classes. Results obtained in various cases agree with those derived earlier by more elaborate methods.
