    Hi Yukesh,

    Can you try with the extend option which extends or retracts the edges of selected surfaces to meet other selected surfaces, or to close gaps between surfaces or holes within a selected surface.

    Please review this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WQr9huW_TEI which shows working on extend option. 

    Also, please review the tutorial HM-2015: Auto-Midsurfacing with Advanced Extraction Options which shows manually correcting gaps in an auto-generated midsurface using the plates edit function.

    You can use surfaces > ruled to create surfaces between two lines, or spline / filler wherever missing surfaces are surrounded by free edges on all sides.
