Introduction: Soft tissue tumors are a diverse & comprise a large spectrum of diagnostic entities. 

Aims: To study the incidence, age, and sex and site distribution of benign soft tissue tumors & to study histopathology of benign, soft tissue tumors and to compare these findings with the workers doing similar studies.

Materials and Methods: It was a retrospective study, conducted in Tertiary Hospital, Delhi. Data from records of surgical biopsy specimen and demographic data for 3yrs [2015-2017] of all the patients with benign soft tissue tumors were included in the study. The distribution and prevalence of soft tissue lesion was noted.

Results: 56 cases of benign soft tissue tumors were included in the study. Lipomas formed the major bulk of benign soft tissue tumors (55%), followed by hemangioma. (25%)The peak incidence of benign soft tissue tumors was observed in the age group of 31 to 40 yrs (23.2%) followed by 51to 60yrs (19.6%). The most common site of occurrence for benign tumors was upper extremity, followed by head & neck.

Conclusion: Extremities were the most common site for benign tumors.Lipomas was the largest group histopathologically, followed by hemangiomas.
