Experimental results on lateral density distribution of Cherenkov light from EAS, relative abundances of the muon to the Cherenkov component, and the muon to the electron component over the energy range 1015 to 1018eV are described. Angular distribution of the lateral distribution shape parameter and the depth of shower maximum are also introduced to study the effect of zenith angle on the calculation of mass composition. Cross analyses of different results on mass composition are at variance below 1016eV, above 1016eV results are in close agreement with one another. Primary results indicate a change of Cherenkov lateral density distribution not only due to mass and energy of the primary particles, it is also well correlated with zenith angle of arrival direction of the primary particles.
