contents The work presented forms a part of the IASc-INSA-NASI Summer Research Fellowship (SRFP) project on the physical & chemical properties of planetary nebulae. Spectral observations of NGC3242 recorded using the VBT Observatory (IIA), Kavalur (TN) for orthogonal slit positions are used for the study. The spectral data were reduced and analyzed using the IRAF data analysis package following the standard procedure to obtain the one dimensional spectrum. Nebular Analysis is performed on the same using NEAT (Wesson et al, 2012)to obtain elemental abundances, densities and temperatures for the PNe and the results are compared to existing literature.
