Hi Ashish,

If I understand you correctly, you are trying to create a child theme and are having issues with how to set it up? The style.css and screenshot.png are the only two things you need to create a child theme.

Here is a link that breaks it down as well on other files you will end up needing but the above is all you need to make it "work" - https://www.smashingmagazine.com/2016/01/create-customize-wordpress-child-theme/
