 In this study Indukanta ghrita was prepared as per classical reference and physicochemical analysis was done. The analytical parameters that were done include organoleptic characters, loss on drying, acid value, peroxide value, saponification value, specific gravity, refractive index, iodine value, and viscosity. 
 The results obtained were Loss on Drying- 0.53%, Acid value- 2.52 mg/g, Peroxide value- Nil, Refractive index- 1.4552, Iodine value- 34.7, Viscosity-1043cp, Saponificationvalue- 205.8mg/g, Specific gravity- 0.916. 
From the present study it can be concluded that all the values of the analytical parameters were falling under the range of ghrita kalpana.
