Dear Akhil,

it is impossible to give you advice because you do not provide any 
detail about what you actually did, what you got, and why do you think 
it is not correct. In order to get a precise answer, you have to provide 
at least the full input and output, and summarize the results in a way 
that the experts reading here can understand without having to read 
pages of literature.

kind regards
