Group 1 and Group 2 made second and third highest contribution in C section rate as per nulliparous patients Further more we analysed Group 5 almost 85% of women undergone C sections for previous C sections Group 9 has 100% C section rate Conclusions: Group 1 and Group 2 which consists of nulliparous patents with either spontaneous or induced labour is having more caesarean section rate.
