Hello Nirmala,

The "bigDataUrl=..." type input only works with bigBed/bigWig files. You 
can read more about how to properly upload and format GTF custom tracks 
here:

http://genome.ucsc.edu/goldenPath/help/customTrack.html#GTF
http://genome.ucsc.edu/goldenPath/help/customTrack.html#GFF

And you can see examples that use the bigDataUrl syntax here:

http://genome.ucsc.edu/goldenPath/help/bigWig.html
http://genome.ucsc.edu/goldenPath/help/bigBed.html

Hopefully this information was helpful and answers your question. If you 
have further questions or require clarification feel free to contact the 
mailing list at [email protected].
