The Battle of Argaon (also known as Battle of Argaum) took place on 29 November 1803, between the British under the command of Major-General Arthur Wellesley (later the Duke of Wellington) and the forces of the Bhonsles of Berar and the Scindias of Gwalior.

After Raghoji II Bhonsle and Daulat Rao Scindia were defeated at the Battle of Laswari, they moved south on 28 November 1803.

In 1803, Nizam Ali Khan fell gravely ill, prompting Daulat Rao Shinde and the Bhonsale to invade his territories.

[1] British forces, under the command of Colonel Stevenson and Wellesley, defeated the Marathas at the Battle of Adgaon.

This victory allowed the Nizam to regain control of all Maratha claims in Berar, thereby putting an end to the Bhonsales' rule over the region.
