"number is dialled in presence of the dial tone and after i have dialled the number______________also i can listen "

And after you have dialed the number???????

Have you tried a different phone cable? Have you tried to pickup a phone that's on the same line after it's dialed to see if the line is actually in use?

I found the problem the telephone exchange does not support tone dialing therefore the dialtone was not dropping.
