However, nitrogen also has a lone pair of electrons. It can donate this lone pair onto the carbon, and quite a few resonance structures can be drawn. Resonance is much more significant than the inductive effect in aniline. -NH2 will give more electron density than it takes, and thus -NH2 is an electron donating group.
OCh3 posses only inductive effect.So nh2 is more electron donating than och3
hope this helps you......
