Abstract	This study examined the water quality of tap water, pond water, and bore well water in the Baramati region. Significant variations were observed across the three sources for parameters including alkalinity, hardness, dissolved oxygen and carbon dioxide, pH, colour, temperature, chloride, and salinity. Pond water exhibited the highest alkalinity and hardness, while tap water showed the highest dissolved oxygen. Bore well water presented the highest carbon dioxide and salinity levels. The pH across all samples was slightly alkaline. These findings highlight the diverse water quality characteristics of different water sources within the same geographical area, underscoring the importance of source-specific water quality assessment for various applications and for ensuring the health of aquatic ecosystems and human populations.
