The scenario of the present era shows that the environmental impact was high on water resources. Water is the eternal source for living with nature. The contamination of groundwater resources is hike at many areas. In this paper an attempt has been taken to analyze the physical and chemical parameters groundwater in the city of Tiruppur. The city of Tiruppur is famous for textiles. There is an high water scarcity in the city due to its various demands but the water is highly polluted. Due to increase in industries the water has higher effluent contamination. The four samples were collected and analyzed for pH, Temperature, Turbidity, electrical conductivity, TH, Calcium hardness, Magnesium Hardness, PH, Sulphates, Chlorides, BOD, COD, DO, TS, TVS, TFS. The results were taken and compared with IS 10500:2012 standards. The results showed that sulphates, Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD) were found to be higher than the permissible limits. The groundwater should be treated for drinking purposes

Keywords- BOD, COD, Groundwater, Physical and chemical parameters.
