I already seen this page and the dssp executable file is present in the specified location. I surprise why it was not working before. I freshly downloaded the dsspcmbi executable and rename it to dssp and gave executable file permission and it started working.

I was doing like this earlier also. May be dssp executable was corrupted.

I would suspect something else was going on. Note from the error message that the dssp executable was not even invoked:

Failed to execute command: /home/sunita/soft/bin -na ...

Thus, do_dssp was trying to execute "bin" instead of "dssp."

The DSSP environment variable must point to the dssp executable itself, not the PATH to it. Maybe you've got things working now, but do check to make sure you've got your environment properly configured to save yourself headaches later.
