Abstract: 
The present investigation was undertaken to determine the chemical analysis of 5 summer honey samples (CHN-CHN-LOH, CHN-CHN-AJA, CHN-CHN-NAN, CHN-CHN-URJ, and CHN-CHN-CHI) collected from forest area of Chandrapur Tahsil of Chandrapur District of Maharashtra State (India). These samples were analyzed for several parameters such as moisture, total reducing sugar, Levulose or Fructose, Dextrose or Glucose, L/D ratio, Sucrose, Acidity. This type of chemical analysis favours the utilization of the honey for good quality in this area.
