Abstract : GX 13+1 is a neutron star low mass X-ray binary. This source has been analysed previously and has shown thermonuclear bursts, energy dependent dips, quasi-periodic oscillations, etc in X-rays. The study of continuum spectrum has revealed the presence of absorption lines. We analysed the data for GX 13+1 using the observations from SXT/AstroSat and LAXPC/AstroSat obtained on 12 October 2016 and studied its timing and spectral properties.
