Abstract : Establishing relative role of internally and externally driven mechanisms responsible for disc and bulge growth is essential to understand the evolution of disc galaxies. In this context, we have studied the physical properties of disc galaxies without classical bulges in comparison to those with classical bulges since z~1. We find that accretion of external material has been a dominant mode of galaxy growth, where the circum-galactic environment plays a significant role.
