    Hi,

    I'm using the below command to find out the owner of the database

    select suser_sname(sid) from sys.sysdatabases where name = 'Mydb'

    I'm getting the Onwer of the database.

    But I also created a login ABC\Admin and mapped that user to Mydb granting db_owner database role

    But it's NOT showing up in the results when I execute above command? Please advice

    Adding a login to the db_owner role does not make it the owner of the database. A database has a single owner, shown by the query you ran. There can be multiple logins that are members of the db_owner role. It's just a database security role.
