Does it do the crackling sound while under [Steam > Settings > Voice] then?

I'd check this: https://support.steampowered.com/kb_article.php?ref=1206-WUOH-3314

While the microphone audio isn't flat out cut out; try exiting programs that could use your audio input while Steam is trying to use it.
I don't use an external mic..I meant for the inbuilt mic of a laptop
Works perfectly fine when I do voice calling through skype
But in dota 2 when I speak it gives a crakling robotic sound to others

And the article says more than that.

I'm aware, you already said that in the starting post. I suggested to turn off programs that could use voice chat alongside Steam.

On the robotic voice, ensure your audio enhancements are disabled under Control Panel > Recording > Properties.
how do i turn off programs that could use voice chat alongside steam....i have no idea about it

Robotic voice is only in dota 2 game and not in skype

Would you stop repeating the same thing over and over?

And besides, didn't you already confirm this issue is happening on Steam itself too?

yes it does

Hold down [Windows] and [R] -keys
control mmsys.cpl sounds
Press [Enter]

Then open up the [Recording] -tab -> Right mouse click your microphone -> [Properties] -> [Enhancements]

Disable them.
