Hi Vijay,
This topic has been discussed many a time in the forum.
Please search the forum before you post.
Anyhow,
In the case of a Subroutine,
If a GOBACK is coded at the end of the routine. the control goes back to the Called program.
If a Stop Run is coded, the execution terminates and the control goes back to the MVS.

The 'RETURN' statement is not the same as the 'GOBACK' statement.
Please read the RETURN STATEMENT from the IBM COBOL Manual
If you still have confusion, please come back
