<abstract language="eng">Prediction of aromatic and anti-aromatic behavior of organic compounds is a vitally important tool for students of chemistry at graduate and post-graduate level for solving different kinds of problems regarding reactivity, stability and acidic properties etc. In this manuscript we try to present a simple and innovative method for easy identification of aromatic and anti-aromatic behavior of organic compounds from their non-aromatic nature excluding Huckel’s rule of aromaticity.</abstract>
