 I am able to mount but the problem I am facing is that file is mounted as nosuid,nodev, which does not allow further mounting.

+=== Solution ===
+Problem was that //./httpfs// was not executed as //root// because of which there were problems
+Finally, following solution worked
+<code>
+$ sudo su -
+# ./httpfs http://www.alien.doesntexist.org/dsl.iso ./test
+# mount
+httpfs on /home/pravin/Etherboot/v2/httpfs/test type fuse.httpfs (rw,nosuid,nodev)
