I'm 18 years old and my weight is 34 kg only (since 3 years it is 34 only). Even having proper diet and lifestyle I am not able to put on my weight. Suggest some supplements in this regard.

Have carbohydrate and protein rich food combinations like Banana or Mango milkshake, Mix nuts and dryfruit chikkis, Soya or paneer veg rolls etc. Include high biological value proteins which are very well absorbed like- Milk, curd, Paneer, Meat, Fish, Eggs etc .Include essential fats like Almonds, walnut , flaxseeds etc. Eat on waking up and do have a bed time meal like milk and light snack.
