The paper deals with analysis of physico-chemical characteristics of bore well and municipal water of Amalner town. Three different ground water samples (bore well) and Municipal water sample from bus stand area were collected during November’ 2006 - January’ 2007 and analyzed. The values obtained were compared with standards prescribed by WHO and ISI 10500-91. In the present study, three water samples were within the limit. One water sample showed high TDS, TH, Chloride, TA and low DO values indicating poor water quality. The significance of the results is further discussed.
