int a = Convert.ToInt32(Settings.Default["monocode"]);
this is the number limit .
i want to fetch this number of rows to listbox .

What I have tried:

int @a = Convert.ToInt32(Settings.Default["monocode"]);
                string query = " select top(@a)  MonoCode,MonoCode_Result,MasterCode,OuterCode,PalletCode from BatchDetails Where MonoCode_Result = 1 and MasterCode IS NULL " +
                    "and OuterCode IS NULL and PalletCode IS NULL ";

intz R us, like right? First off ... correct your grammar. For instance "i" at the beginning of a sentence, should be "I". Then we'll see about some help.

You cannot create a string that way, you need to use a formatting method to create it. Something like:
C#
int rowcount = Convert.ToInt32(Settings.Default["monocode"]);
string query = string.Format($" select top({rowcount})  MonoCode,MonoCode_Result,MasterCode,OuterCode,PalletCode from BatchDetails Where MonoCode_Result = 1 and MasterCode IS NULL " +
                    "and OuterCode IS NULL and PalletCode IS NULL ");

And I recommend a more meaningful name for the count variable.

Then you need to use some other option to filter the results, maybe SQL SELECT DISTINCT Statement[^]. Seriously, spend some time actually learning the system you are trying to use.
In order for the TOP to work, you need to set the value for the bind variable before executing the statement. Consider the following example
C#
DataTable resultTable = new DataTable();

using (SqlConnection connection = new SqlConnection("Data Source=(local); Initial Catalog=master;Integrated Security=SSPI")) {
   using (SqlCommand command = new SqlCommand()) {
      command.CommandText = "SELECT TOP (@rowcount) * FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLES ORDER BY TABLE_NAME";
      command.Connection = connection;
      command.Parameters.AddWithValue("@rowcount", 2);
      using (SqlDataAdapter adapter = new SqlDataAdapter(command)) {
         connection.Open();
         adapter.Fill(resultTable);
         connection.Close();
      }
   }
}

If the result is still not what expected, check if conditions in the WHERE clause are eliminating rows.
