Summary, etc. Activated carbon with surface area of 896 m<sup>2</sup>/g has been prepared from the wood of <em>Thevetia Neriifolia </em>Juss (TNJAC). The fitness of the prepared activated carbon is tested for its adsorption capability towards the textile dye direct orange 102 (DO102). On increasing the solution <em>p</em>H from 2 to 12, the percentage of DO102 adsorption increases from 41 to 75%. The adsorption kinetics is analyzed using pseudo-first order and pseudo-second order kinetic models. Pseudo-second order model is more appropriate to describe the adsorption kinetics with a correlation coefficient of 0.9311&lt; r<sup>2</sup>&lt; 0.9871. On analyzing the adsorption isotherm using Langmuir and Freundlich models, the adsorption of DO102 by TNJAC follows Langmuir type of isotherm with energetically homogeneous sorbent surface.
