Prior to the preparation of any type of medicated oils, murchana a kind of pharmaceutical processing on crude oil is must. This process has aided significantly at enhancing the acceptability of the oil in the form of good odour and colour, as well as potency of medicated oils. Hence in this study an attempt was made to evaluate the importance of Sarshapataila murchana in the preparation of Gandhakataila through analytical parameters. Sarshapataila, murchita Sarshapataila, Gandhakataila prepared with murchita and amurchita Sarshapataila are separately analyzed with the basic analytical methods in terms of Organoleptic charactors, physic-chemical parameters and chromatographically changes. Results of the study revealed that application of murchana process on the basic oil Sarshapataila must be strictly included as per the pre-requisites of Gandhakataila.
