Tried drilling further after reaching water level, but couldn't - Can drilling of borewell continue after reaching water level?

While drilling our borewell, we reached water at 800 ft and the yield was good as told by our contractor, but we wanted to drill deeper by another 100 ft more so we wont face any problem in summer. But we could not drill any deeper as water was gushing out and preventing to any deeper. Is it normal? Will the drilling stop once you reach water?
