Hey !!

Homoleptic complexes :- Complexes in which the metal ion is linked to only one type of ligands are called homoleptic complexes

Example :- [Co(NH₃)₆]³⁺

Heteroleptic complexes :- The complexes in which the metal atom or ion is linked to more than one kind of ligands are called heteroleptic complexes

Example :- [Co(NH₃)₄Cl₂]⁺


GOOD LUCK !!
