This study assessed the concentration of PM 10 and trace metals at six sites with different land uses during the period of one year. Metals concentrations of PM 10 were analyzed using ICP-OES. Highest concentrations of PM 10 were recorded in winter and lower in monsoon at all the study sites. The concentrations of trace metals in PM 10 were observed in the following order: Zn > Fe > Cu >Al > Pb > Cr > Mn > Cd > Ni. Overall concentration of PM 10 and heavy metals was found highest at industrial sites than the vehicular, commercial and residential sites shows the greater contribution of industrial and combustion process. Univariate (correlation study) and Multivariate statistical analysis were adopted including; factor analysis and enrichment factor analysis to identify the sources and their contribution to PM 10 . The major source of airborne trace metals identified were brassware industries, illegal e-waste burning automobile emissions and combustion processes.
