Ravi, Its possible that you have the "ping the host" setting on and the box is configured not to respond to pings (possible an XP machine with the built in firewall turned on?). This would cause the scan to skip that IP if it couldnt ping it. Have you tried actually pinging the box via the commandline?

We have 5 servers with public IP address. I am able to use nessus against 4 of them. But whenever I try to scan the fifth one, nessus shows status of 100% completion instantly and does not scan at all. I am perplexed because nessus is working perfectly well against the other four. I eagerly wait for your response. Regards.
