A field experiment was conducted during Rabi season of 2023-24 at Agricultural Research Farm, Department of Agronomy, R.B.S. College, Bichpuri, Agra (U.P.) the investigation entitled “Performances of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) varieties at different levels of nitrogen under late sown condition”. The variable involved in this study were three nitrogen levels (N₁- 100, N₂- 150 and N₃- 200 Kg N ha^-1) and three varieties (V₁- Raj 3765, V₂-DBW 173 and V₃- Raj 4037) thus in all nine treatment combinations were compared in Factorial Randomized Block Design with three replications. Result revealed that the highest biological yield (114.76 q ha^-1), grain yield (46.60 q ha^-1), straw yield (68.60 q ha^-1), harvest index (40.60%), gross income (₹. 1,33,325 ha⁻¹), net income (₹. 85,968 ha^-1) and benefit-cost (B:C) ratio (1.81) was recorded at the 200 kg ha^-1nitrogen level (N₃) followed by 150 kg ha^-1 and 100 kg ha^-1. Among all the varieties tested in the experiment, gave better results variety DBW 173 (V₂) recorded the highest biological yield (114.13 q ha^-1), grain yield (47.38 q ha^-1), straw yield (66.75 q ha^-1), harvest index (41.57%), highest gross income (₹. 1,34,057 ha⁻¹), net income (₹. 86,699 ha^-1) and B:C ratio (1.83) was obtained from the DBW 173 variety followed by variety Raj 3765 and variety Raj 4037.
