    Lead free solid solution Bi<inf>0.5</inf>(Na<inf>0.68</inf>K<inf>0.22</inf>Li<inf>0.10</inf>)<inf>0.5</inf>TiO<inf>3</inf>-xmol%Bi<inf>2</inf>FeCrO<inf>6</inf> (BNKLT-xBFCO), with x = 0, 0.004, 0.007, 0.013 and 0.019, ceramics were calcined at 750 °C and sintered at 1150 °C for 2 h using the solid state combustion technique. The effect of the x content on the phase formation, microstructure, electric and magnetic properties of the produced ceramics were investigated. All samples exhibited a pure perovskite phase with the co-existence of rhombohedral and tetragonal phases. The doping of BFCO enhanced the density and dielectric properties of the BNKLT ceramics. The BNKLT-0.013BFCO ceramics showed the highest density (5.87 g/cm<sup>3</sup>), excellent dielectric properties (ε <inf>R</inf> ∼1390, tan δ <inf>R</inf> ∼0.039, ε <inf>m</inf> ∼4986 and tan δ <inf>m</inf> ∼0.075) and the highest piezoelectric constant (d<inf>33</inf>∼194 pC/N). The sample with x = 0 showed diamagnetic behavior, while the samples with 0.004-0.019 content exhibited paramagnetic behavior with higher magnetization at higher x content.
