Abstract : Maser emission plays an important role as a tool in star formation studies. It is widely used for deriving kinematics, as well as the physical conditions of different structures, hidden in the dense environment very close to the young stars. Cosmic masers are one of the first observed signpost of high-mass star formation. It was relatively well established from earlier surveys of masers in our Galaxy that massive star-forming regions can be associated with OH, H2O and Class II CH3OH masers. However, there is still a great need for verifying what is the relation between specific stages and classes of star formation and different masers. In this work we study the maser source 2MASX J04183258+5326027 to understand the star formation scenario in the local environment of young open clusters s208 and wat01. For this work we use the NIR data from TANSPEC instrument newly installed on 3.6 DOT telescope of ARIES Nainital India, with multiwavelength data sets.
