Thanks a lot RudiC for your script. I was previously getting error from my script and now my script is working fine. Below is my script :
Code:
#!/bin/bash
echo "hostname value1 value2 value3" > result.csv
a=`cat $1 | wc -l`
echo $a
b=`expr ${a} / 4`
echo $b
i=1
while [ $i -le $b ]
do[/FONT]
echo "Inside loop"
echo $i
c=`expr ${i} \* 4`
echo "c=$c"
cat $1 | head -n $c | tail -n 4 > t2.csv

Please do not paste masses of FONT formatting, just wrap all code, files, input & output/errors in CODE tags.
It makes them far easier to read and retains multiple spaces for indenting or fixed width data.

RE_COMP(3)						     Linux Programmer's Manual							RE_COMP(3)

NAME
re_comp, re_exec - BSD regex functions SYNOPSIS
#define _REGEX_RE_COMP #include <sys/types.h> #include <regex.h> char *re_comp(char *regex); int re_exec(char *string); DESCRIPTION
re_comp() is used to compile the null-terminated regular expression pointed to by regex. The compiled pattern occupies a static area, the pattern buffer, which is overwritten by subsequent use of re_comp(). If regex is NULL, no operation is performed and the pattern buffer's contents are not altered. re_exec() is used to assess whether the null-terminated string pointed to by string matches the previously compiled regex. RETURN VALUE
re_comp() returns NULL on successful compilation of regex otherwise it returns a pointer to an appropriate error message. re_exec() returns 1 for a successful match, zero for failure. CONFORMING TO
4.3BSD. NOTES
These functions are obsolete; the functions documented in regcomp(3) should be used instead. SEE ALSO
regcomp(3), regex(7), GNU regex manual COLOPHON
