Diet of sahar larvae indicated that as they grew older larger zooplanktons were ingested progressively (Ref. 41840). Feeding intensity was poor during breeding season (Ref. 56213, 58486). The feeding improved after breeding and peaked in January to February in Narmada River. The feeding activities declined with the progressive maturation of gonads from March to April (Ref. 58486).
