Hi Krishna,

You should be able to more or less follow the postgis example from the
examples section. Depending on how your datastore behaves that is.

1) First add the datastore itself

http://docs.geoserver.org/stable/en/user/restconfig/rest-config-examples-curl.html#adding-a-postgis-database

2) Add the feature type that the datastore offers

http://docs.geoserver.org/stable/en/user/restconfig/rest-config-examples-curl.html#adding-a-postgis-table

After that your feature type should be published as a layer as long as no
errors occur.
