First thing, define a type or interface for your object, it will make things much more readable:

type Product = { productId: number; price: number; discount: number };

You used a tuple of size one instead of array, it should look like this:

let myarray: Product[];
let priceListMap : Map = new Map();

So now this works fine:

myarray.push({productId : 1 , price : 100 , discount : 10});
myarray.push({productId : 2 , price : 200 , discount : 20});
myarray.push({productId : 3 , price : 300 , discount : 30});
priceListMap.set(1 , this.myarray);
myarray = null;
