ITC paper boards and speciality papers division located at Sarapaka, Bhadrachalam, Khammam, Telangana is among the leading names in the business worldwide and largest manufacturer of paper, paper boards and bleached pulp in south Asia. The waste water generated in the process is treated chemically and biologically before discharge for irrigation. The survivality and growth of fry of Indian major carps (Catla catla, Labeo rohita and Cirihhinus mrigala) reared in treated effluents of PSPD, Bhadrachalam is evaluated. Fry are stocked in the ratio of 1:4:2 @ 3000/acre and fed with mixture of rice bran and groundnut cake. A significant enhancement in survivality and growth performance was noticed in the treated effluents, exhibiting their nutritive nature. Comparatively the growth rate of catla is higher due to abundance of zooplankton which is its choice food. Water quality parameters of treated effluents were conducive for fish rearing.
