Dear Uttam Paliwal,
Another approach would be to use simple geometry and to create the cell
by hand. This also helps to understand structures instead of using some
program - which I can only recommend to do once you need to create more
complex structures or have more complicated materials.
Regards
Thomas

This would be a very easy task if you used Virtual NanoLab for
manipulating atomistic structures and setting up your QE input files:

Hi
How to construct and imply a 2x2x2 supercell for ibrav=2 i.e. cubic
fcc lattice of rock-salt NaCl type structure having space group 225.
also suggest how to get atomic position for it. My single unit cell
input file is as
&CONTROL
calculation = 'scf' ,
restart_mode = 'from_scratch' ,
outdir = '/OUT PUT DIR' ,
pseudo_dir = '/TEMP' ,
prefix = 'ppppp' ,
/
&SYSTEM
ibrav = 2,
celldm(1) = 9.07124,
nat = 2,
ntyp = 2,
ecutwfc = 60.0 ,
ecutrho = 500.0 ,
space_group = 225 ,
/
&ELECTRONS
conv_thr = 1.0d-8 ,
mixing_mode = 'plain' ,
