Abstract: The field experiment was conducted during kharif season of 2016 at Crop Research Farm SHUATS, Allahabad (UP). The experiment was carried out to find the performance of 10 hybrids, which laid out in Randomized Block Design (RBD) & replicated thrice. The experiment finding revealed that the treatment T₉ (KR 09) significantly performed better than all other varieties viz; Plant height (142.31 cm), Dry weight (41.87 g), Number of effective tillers per hill (12.15), Panicle length (28.63 cm), Number of filled grains plant^–1 (227.67), Test weight (32.33 g), Grain yield (8.51 t ha^–1), Straw yield (16.30 t ha^–1), Biological Yield (24.81 t ha^–1). While the same treatment T₉ (KR 09) recorded highest gross return (201400 Rs ha^–1), net return (133722 Rs ha^–1) and B: C ratio (3.1), however treatment T₈ (KR 08), T₇: (KR 07) and (KR 10) were statistically at par with treatment T₉.
