We present a photometric and kinematical analysis of two and poorly studied open clusters; Koposov 12 (FSR 802) and Koposov 43 (FSR 848) by using cross-matched data from PPMXL and Gaia DR2 catalog. We use astrometric parameters to identify 285 and 310 cluster members for Koposov 12 and Koposov 43, respectively. Using the extracted member candidates and isochrone fitting to near-infrared (J, H, Ks) and Gaia DR2 bands (G, GBP, GRP), and Color Magnitude Diagrams (CMDs), we have estimated ages: log (age/yr) = 9.00 +/- 0.20 and 9.50 +/- 0.20, and distances d = 1850 +/- 43 pc and 2500 +/- 50 pc for Koposov 12 and Koposov 43, respectively, assuming Solar metallicity (Z=0.019). The estimated masses of the cluster derived using initial mass function and synthetic CMD are 364 +/- 19 M_sun and 352 +/- 19 M_sun. We have also computed their velocity ellipsoid parameters based on (3x3) matrix elements (mu_ij).
