This study examines the trends in the vertical distribution of ozone over three low latitude stations in India. The stations are Delhi (28° N, 77° E), Pune (18° N, 74° E) and Thiruvananthapuram (8° N, 76° E) lying in the almost same longitude belt (74-77°) but separated by10o latitude. The balloon ozonesonde data of 45 years (1969 – 2012) have been analyzed. It has been found that ozone trends at different altitudes are different for three stations. The peak value and the altitude of peak value vary from year to year. This is due to solar UV-B variation.
