I could do it successfully and it is very new to me. I am using MODIS atmospheric profile product, which is MOD_07_L2 product......I think the method suggested by you cannot be used for those data which is swath data. It can be used to global data only I think.....In my case it is swath data which is a pass of satellite over particular region. So I am using another method to plot this using grads. It follows converting the hdf files into station binary files and plotting using stationgrads. Any way thanks for the information once again.
