Rupen river has three bank tributaries; two right and one left. The right two tributaries are Pushpavathi and Khari. These drain nearly 24.6% of total catchment area of Rupen river ( 2500 sq. km). The left tributary is mostly the Khari river. The right side of the river is flows more actively as compared to the left side of the river. So the drainage system is more extensive on the right bank area.

Pushpavathi i.e., the main right tributary of Rupen river arises upstream from hilly area of Balad village of Kheralu taluk, in Mahesana ( Gujarat District) at an elevation of 183 m above Mean Sea Level. So, Pusphavathi meets Rupen river at upstream of Sapawada village.
