Maybe depending on the data and amount of data.. But have you tried to create the list with same columns and same order and then select all data in the table and do copy, then open list in "Quick edit" mode and paste? Have not tried from SQL but it does work with excel data. Else I guess you could do it with powershell or make some console program.

syed_shadab_mohammed ok super, hope it works for you!
Please let me know how it works out in your case..
But if its big table like thousands of records or even more then I guess I would use PowerShell or write C# code to do the migration.
