    <abstract language="eng">The people living with HIV/AIDs have various types of hematological disorders of various degree of varying severity. Aim is to study different hematological profile before and after HAART and its correlation with CD4 count. Study conducted in western Maharashtra. Socio-demographic characteristics were recorded &amp; Hematological profile and CD4 count before and 6 months after HAART in AIDs patients, collected from the data book of laboratory after permission from physician. Correlation of these blood profile and CD4 count before and after HAART which will help for prognosis and clinical evaluation of AIDs patients during treatment. In 100 patients 56% were female and 44% were male.Most of the patients female were in age group of   31-40(35.7%) and males were in age group of 21-30(34%).Significant  improvement was seen in hemoglobin level, total leucocyte count &amp; CD4 count after HAART. Significant macrocytosis observed after ART treatment. Thus Anaemia is a very important and common presentation. HAART produces a definitive improvement of hematological parameters and CD4 cell count. There is significant association between increase in hemoglobin level and CD4 cell count, which can be used for prognosis and clinical evaluation.</abstract>
