A field experiment was conducted on a sandy clay loam soil at college farm of Professor Jayashankar Telangana State Agricultural University, Rajendranagar, Hyderabad, Telangana during the kharif seasons of 2014 and 2015 to study the economics of rice varieties as influenced by combination of plant densities and fertilizer levels under late sown conditions. Same cost of cultivation was recorded for the three varieties, MTU 1010, Rajendra and Pradyumna. Among the treatments the highest cost of cultivation was noticed with (T9) viz., P3 (15 cm × 10 cm) in combination with F3 (195-86-90, N, P2O5 and K2O). The highest gross returns were recorded significantly by MTU 1010 over Rajendra and Pradyumna. Among the combination of planting density and fertility levels, the highest gross returns was recorded with the treatment (T9) viz.,P3 (15 cm × 10 cm) in combination with F3 (195-86-90, N, P2O5 and K2O). It was on par with (T8) viz., P3 (15 cm × 10 cm) in combination with F2 (153-59-68, N, P2O5 and K2O). The highest net returns ( 51595, 57974 and 54784 ha-1 during 2014, 2015 and in pooled means, respectively) and B:C ratio (1.30, 1.46 and 1.38 during 2014, 2015 and in pooled means, respectively.) were recorded by MTU 1010 over Rajendra and Pradyumna. Among the combination of planting density and fertility levels, the highest net returns were recorded with the treatment (T8) viz., P3 (15 cm × 10 cm) in combination with F2 (153-59-68, N, P2O5 and K2O) ( 57690, 63864 and 60777 ha-1). It was on par with (T9) viz., P3 (15 cm × 10 cm) in combination with F3 (195-86-90, N, P2O5 and K2O).
