Hi Sridhar,
I assume that you are using OS V3.5 or greater. This is because the concept
of Color Palette was intorduced only here.
Palm OS supports system palettes of 1, 2, 4, or 8 bits-per-pixel.
The Details are:
    1-bit: white (0) and black (1)

    2-bit: white (0), light gray (1), dark gray (2), and black (3)

    4-bit: 16 shades of gray, from white (0) to black (0xF)

    8-bit: 216 color "Web-safe" palette, which includes all combinations of
red, green, and blue at these levels: 0x00, 0x33,
    0x66, 0x99, 0xCC, and 0xFF.
    Also, it includes all 16 gray shades at these levels: 0x00, 0x11, 0x22,
... 0xFF.
    Finally, it includes these extra named HTML colors: 0xC0C0C0 (silver),
0x808080 (gray),
    0x800000 (maroon), 0x800080 (purple), 0x008000 (green), and
    0x008080 (teal).
    The remaining 24 entries (indexes 0xE7 through
    0xFE) are unspecified and filled with black. (On debug ROMs they
    are filled with random colors to help developers notice if they
    use an invalid value.) These entries may be defined by an
    application.

Feel free to get back in case you need  any further clarifications.
