Abstract: The research work was conducted at Central Research Farm in Sam Higginbottom University of Agriculture Technology and Sciences, Naini, Prayagraj during rabi season in 2023-2024 includes eight treatments including and control viz, T₁-Neem Oil 5%, T₂-NSKE 5%, T₃-Beauveria bassiana 1.15% WP, T₄-Bacillus thuringiensis 1×10⁹ CFU/ml, T₅-Spinosad 45 SC, T₆-Chlorantraniliprole 18.5% SC, T₇-Profenofos 40% + Cypermethrin 4% EC and T₀-untreated plot in Randomized Block Design used in three replications tormenting to study the efficacy of selected insecticides on the larval population of H. armigera on Chickpea. Result show that T₆-Chlorantraniliprole 18.5% SC found superior among all treatments with larval population of (0.52) with highest C:B ratio and marketable yield (1:3.49 and 26.83 q/ha), and least effective among the treatments is NSKE 5% with a pest population, C:B ratio and yield (1.77, 1:1.75 and 13.33 q/ha).
