Dear Dilip
                Vectors have magnitude and direction, scalars only have magnitude. The fact that magnitude occurs for both scalars and vectors can lead to some confusion. There are some quantities, like speed, which have very special definitions for scientists. By definition, speed is the scalar magnitude of a velocity vector.

Dillep, The quantity which has both magnitude and direction then it is called vector quantity.For example velocity,acceleration......etc.

Defining Scalar and Vector Quantity. Scalar is the measurement of a medium strictly in magnitude. Vector is a measurement that refers to both the magnitude of the medium as well as the direction of the movement the medium has taken.
