Hi Siva,
You can use custom action for caling batch or msbuild scripts.
If you find any better approach let me know.
code sample;

</Component>
</Directory>
</Directory>
</Directory>
<!--
Define a custom action to set the property value of the
command to execute. This could have been hardcoded, but
this is a bit more realistic.
-->
<CustomAction
Id="SetPropertySampleEXE"
Property="SampleEXE"
Value="C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\MSBuild.exe" />
<!--
Define a custom action to execute our sample EXE (which
just happens to be an XCOPY (as defined by the property
SampleEXE. C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe /k ""D:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual
Studio 8\SDK\v2.0\Bin\sdkvars.bat""
-->
<CustomAction
Id="InvokeSampleEXE"
Property="SampleEXE"
ExeCommand="/property:EnvironmentConfig=DEV;BT06_InstallDirectory=C:\DirectoryName
;BizTalkDatabaseServer=(local);
BizTalkBuildConfiguration=Debug;BizTalkManagementDatabaseName=DBName Project
file path" />
<!--
Invoke the custom actions
- Set the property first, then execute the command
-->
<InstallExecuteSequence>
<Custom
