If some body knows how download the my study area data please help meHi Subbu, I don't think this is qgis related. The plugin just uses other tools to download data from osm-api server. If I convert your bounding box to decimal degrees: 78.7667 11.4167 10.3667 78.00 I get the following message from the plugin: Download failed: Download process failed. OpenStreetMap server response: Bad Request - The maximum bbox size is 0.25, and your request was too large. Either request a smaller area, or use planet.osm. It's just that the OSM server does not want to provide al this data via the osm-api You can either get small boxes of 0.25x0.25 degrees but it is easier te get a data set from mirrors like: http://download.geofabrik.de/osm/asia/ there are a lot of other mirrors for that: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Planet.osm#Mirrors
Additionally, you can directly download areas larger than 0.5X0.5 degrees from the xapi interface, explained here:
