A rotational band with five $\gamma$-ray transitions ranging from 2$^{+}$ to 12$^{+}$ states was identified in $^{40}$Ar. This is linked through $\gamma$ the excited 2$^{+}$, 4$^{+}$ and 6$^{+}$ levels low-lying states; this determines excitation energy spin-parity of band. The deduced transition quadrupole moment 1.45$^{+0.49}_{-0.31} eb$ indicates that has a superdeformed shape. nature revealed by cranked Hartree--Fock--Bogoliubov calculations multiparticle--multihole configuration assigned
