The research material consisted of sixteen genotypes of potato. The seed tubers of the genotypes were taken from the “All India Co-ordinated Research Project on Potato, Department of Vegetable Science, Indira Gandhi Krishi Vishwavidyalaya, Raipur, (C.G.)”. In Exp I, Pooled data revealed that the maximum gross returns (551460 Rs/ha) was obtained in P-45 followed by Kufri Khyati (530460 Rs/ha) and Kufri Lima (524440 Rs/ha). Similarly, in Exp II, maximum gross returns (658140 Rs/ha) was obtained in Kufri Khyati followed by Kufri Lima (623700 Rs/ha) and P-48 (620200 Rs/ha). In Exp I, the maximum net returns (454159.23 Rs/ha) was obtained in P-45 followed by Kufri Khyati (433159.23 Rs/ha) and Kufri Lima (427139.23 Rs/ha). While, in Exp II, The maximum net returns (560839.23 Rs/ha) was obtained in Kufri Khyati followed by Kufri Lima (526399.23 Rs ha^-1) and P-48 (522899.23 Rs/ha). The maximum b:c ratio (4.67) was obtained in P-45 followed by Kufri Khyati (4.45) and Kufri Lima (4.39) in Exp I. Moreover, in Exp II, maximum B:C ratio (5.76) was obtained in Kufri Khyati followed by Kufri Lima (5.10 and 5.41) and P-48 (5.37).
