We report optical photometric observations of recurrent nova M31N 2008-12a discovered in outburst on December 2, 2022 19:50:15 UTC (ATel #15786). The observations were obtained using the 0.36m Ritchey–Chrétien telescope, Cepheid's Observatory, Rawatbhata, India on 2022 December 3.64 UT. The ATLAS and PRISMv10 Catalogs are used for photometric calibration. The BVRI band magnitudes are estimated as 18.51 ± 0.25, 18.42 ± 0.20, 18.21 ± 0.20 and 17.56 ± 0.20, respectively.
