The ceramic Ba{sub 2}LaSbO{sub 6} (BLS) is synthesized by the solid state reaction technique. The Rietveld refinement of X-ray diffraction pattern at room temperature shows Monoclinic P2{sub 1}/n space group symmetry with lattice parameter a = 6.0720 (0) Å, b = 6.1058 (3) Å, c = 8.6016 (6) Å and β =89.7091 ° (8). Dielectric study of sample has been performed in the temperature range from 30 °C to 300 °C in the frequency range 50 Hz to 1.1 MHz. Dielectric relaxation peaks are observed in the imaginary part of complex permittivity of the spectra. The frequency dependence of real and imaginary parts of dielectric permittivity is analyzed using Cole-Cole model. The temperature dependent relaxation time is found to obey the Arrhenius law having activation energy 0.48 eV which indicates that the conduction mechanism in the materials may be due to polaron hopping based on electron carriers. The complex plane plots of BLS shows the presence of both grain and grain boundary effects. Conductivity spectra follow the power law.
