Thanks to Florain for prompt reply
May be this is trivial query to you
I have done in this way
1. Making index file 
  make_ndx -f .gro -o .ndx
  selected 7(mainchain+H)& r 24 26 45 67 78
  the index showed like this
  [ MainChain+H_&_r_22_50_56_121_22 ]
 370  370  371  371  372  372  386  386  387  387  822  823  824  838  839
 916  917  918  932  933 1839 1840 1841 1855 1856

2. g_hbond -f .xtc -s .tpr -n .ndx -num .xvg -hbm .xpm -r 0.35 -a 30
   it showed 
 Select a group: 15
 Selected 15: 'MainChain+H_&_r_22_50_56_121_22'
 Select a group: 15
 Selected 15: 'MainChain+H_&_r_22_50_56_121_22'
 Calculating hydrogen bonds in MainChain+H_&_r_22_50_56_121_22 (25
 atoms) Found 4 donors and 8 acceptors
 Reading frame 0 time 0.000
 Will do grid-seach on 16x16x16 grid, rcut=0.35
 Reading frame   37000 time 7400.000
 No hydrogen bonds found!!
 Average number of hbonds per timeframe 0.000 out of 16 possible
 
  Then I have given same command but slight change -r 0.25 -a 30 but it showed same data I have pasted above tells no H-bonds found.
 
Could please suggest me angle cutoff and radius cutoff values.I have tried to get information about these values but I couldnt able to get.

Thanks in advance
