    Abstract
    ARGO-salinity data from the Indian Ocean are validated using salinity from float-versus-float match-ups and also using CTD observations from three cruises. Validation data sets are selected in such a way that the float and the match-up data are collocated with tolerable space-time difference. For validation a time difference of less than 10 days and space difference less than 100 Km have been considered. The evaluation is done using salinity data on theta (potential temperature) surfaces from deeper observations. One of the significant observation of float-versus-float validation is the large random error observed in the initial profiles of the float-salinity compared to later profiles. While the float salinity data is found to be largely in good agreement with the ship based CTD observations, there are cases where the salinity error exceeds the desired 0.01 PSU
