Susceptibility is defined as the ration of intensity of magnetisation to the magnetizing field intensity

So k = I / H

In case of paramagnetic substances, I will be in the same direction with H but for a larger H there will be a weak I

So I/H will be very much less than 1 and it is positive

Hence the relative permeability of paramagnetic substance is slightly greater than 1.
