To studies the obstetric profile of mothers undergoing primary caesarean section in a tertiary care centre. 2) To study the associated maternal diseases in mothers undergoing primary caesarean section. 3) To study the outcome of the neonates delivered by primary caesarean section Materials and Methods: Cross sectional study was done on 150 women who underwent caesarean section for the first time during the period July2012 to July2013.

Induction patients have undergone more number of primary caesarean section when compared to spontaneous onset of labour. More number of mothers with GDM and PIH has undergone primary caesarean section when compared to other maternal diseases. The rate of emergency primary caesarean section is 88.7% which is very high when compared to elective primary caesarean section which is 11.3%.
