Abstract

The present study, carried out around Sagroli-Simpala, Biloli in Nanded district along western margin of East Dharwar Craton (EDC) suggests that the region has dominance of strike-slip fault tectonic regime and the representative sub-basins have experienced tilting. The elongation ratio of the subbasins suggests that the sub-basins are tectonically active. The asymmetry factor of the three sub-basins implies the tectonic tilting of the area.
