The limitations of Newland's law of octaves are:
(1) It was found that the Law of Octaves was applicable only up to calcium, as after calcium every eighth element did not possess properties similar to that of the first.
(2) It was assumed by Newlands that only 56 elements existed in nature and no more elements would be discovered in the future.
