We report a spectrum of a recent nova candidate M31N 2012-01a=PTF12js (ATel #3846) that was obtained with the Dual Image Spectrograph on the 3.5-m telescope at the Apache Point observatory on Jan 7.06, 2012. In the spectrum, we see a blue continuum component superposed by prominent Balmer series, He 4686, Na D and O I 8447 and 7773 lines with Fe emission features at 5000-5300 Å. All emission lines have P-Cygni profiles.
