Laser induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) analysis of plasma dust/impurities deposited on the surface of graphite limiter of Aditya tokamak is presented in the manuscript. LIBS spectra of contaminated curved surface of the limiter show the presence of Fe, Cr, Ni, Mo, Mn, Cu and C. The depth profile analysis of impurities has been performed by recording LIBS spectra with successive number of laser shots. Variation of spectral line intensity of impurities on its surface with distance from one end of the curved surface to the other end has been studied which shows spatial analysis i.e. deposition pattern of plasma dust/impurities on its surface. The concentration of constituents has been calculated using calibration free LIBS (CF-LIBS) method. The study demonstrates the capability of LIBS for depth profile and spatial analysis of deposited impurities on tokamak limiter.
