Shivaji Maharaj was around 5'8" (173 cm) tall. This is based on the descriptions of his height in contemporary accounts, as well as the dimensions of his armor, which is preserved in the Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Museum in Pune.
However, it is important to note that the average height of people in India has increased over time. So, Shivaji Maharaj would have been considered taller than average in his own time.
