Abstract : We report the kinematics of slow and fast CMEs during cycle 23 and 24. We classify CMEs as slow and fast based on the speed of propagation. We find that slow and fast CMEs behave quiet differently in cycle 24 as compared to cycle 23. We also attempted to study the evolution of CME width with time and estimated the time and distance of width saturation. It has an interesting implications on the behavior of heliospheric magnetic field.
