Al [Ne] 3s2,3p1.The vacant 3d orbitals are also available to form covalent bond. Hence maximum covalency exhibited by Al is 6 in its compounds e.g., [Al(OH)6]3-.

as in case of boron it is 4 due to one 2s and three 2p but aluminum has one 3s , three 3p and 5 vacant d orbital so how it is possible?

Answer:
of unpaired electrons available for covalent bonding. Electronic configuration of Al is N e 3 s 2 , 3 p 1 . There are vacant 3d orbitals available so it can exhibit a covalency up to 6.
