Single phased hexagonal YMnO{sub 3} (YMO) ceramics have been synthesized via soft chemical co-precipitation route and adopting different sintering conditions. From the X-ray diffraction analysis, ceramic powder sintered at 600 Degree-Sign C was found to be amorphous. Sintering at 1000 Degree-Sign C lead to the formation of single phase YMO belonging to the noncentrosymmetric P6{sub 3}cm space group. Further, dielectric, Leakage and magnetic studies were performed at room temperature.
