Yes, I assume you're a beginner, so you can start with this workout.
This is known as Rippetoe's workout. Do it 3 times a week, remember to feed your body so that it grows. You'll notice yourself packing on mass if you're doing it religiously and eating and sleeping well. If you don't know how to do the exercises you can always google them. If still not sure, you can ask us here. :)

currently managed to gain 2kg after 1 months.. is this a good pace?
i didnt really change my diet though..
This is kinda slow but no worries it takes time to build up. Try changing your diet to a more high carb and high protein diet. I was 50kg 173cm and now i'm 65kg 173cm (previously it was 68kg decided to cut down as i felt i was gaining more fats), so take it slow ;)

Eat more meat like chicken breast. Everyday I'm eating close to 500g of chicken breast and 10 eggs (of course I have fruits and vege also la). So far have put on 2 kg in 3 weeks.
Of course I also hit the gym 3 times a week la. So the meat provides the protein for the muscles.
