Hi,

I have used this func module.

CALL FUNCTION 'SCMS_TEXT_TO_XSTRING'
       EXPORTING
*         FIRST_LINE       = 0
*         LAST_LINE        = 0
*         MIMETYPE         = ' '
         ENCODING         = '4103'
       IMPORTING
         BUFFER           = w_test
        TABLES
          TEXT_TAB         = i_buffer_new1
*       EXCEPTIONS
*         FAILED           = 1
*         OTHERS           = 2
                .
      IF SY-SUBRC <> 0.
* MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO
*         WITH SY-MSGV1 SY-MSGV2 SY-MSGV3 SY-MSGV4.
      ENDIF.

now i am getting in utf-8 format.
