Hi Farhan,

I copy the parts from RFC 3261, 6 Definitions:

      Stateful Proxy: A logical entity that maintains the client and
         server transaction state machines defined by this specification
         during the processing of a request, also known as a transaction
         stateful proxy.  The behavior of a stateful proxy is further
         defined in Section 16.  A (transaction) stateful proxy is not
         the same as a call stateful proxy.

      Call Stateful: A proxy is call stateful if it retains state for a
         dialog from the initiating INVITE to the terminating BYE
         request.  A call stateful proxy is always transaction stateful,
         but the converse is not necessarily true.

Greeting

Markus
