The fly ash is the waste material of coal based thermal power plants and is produced in a large amount in our country as well as in all over world. It has been registered that due to increase the power demand in world the percentage of fly ash also increases very fast. Hence, so many efforts have been made day by day to reutilize this waste material in various sectors. The present work is deal with the variation in the physical - chemical profile of fly ash incorporation soil with and without Neem leaf for the period of 120 days of incubation. The result of this study is based on different properties like pH, specific conductivity, organic carbon, nitrogen and potassium in different concentration of amendment. The percentage of organic carbon and nitrogen have showed decreasing order without Neem leaf. While the percentage of organic carbon and nitrogen showed increasing order in presence of Neem leaf. But in case of potassium it showed increasing trend with and without Neem leaf.
