Hi shivan,
If you are using Apache SOAP, the following steps you can follow to write full code.

javax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilder builder = XMLParserUtils.getXMLDocBuilder();
doc = builder.parse(new ByteArrayInputStream("soapMessageInXMLFormat".getBytes()));
Envelope msgEnvelope = Envelope.unmarshall(doc.getDocumentElement());
Message msg = new Message();
url = new URL(webserviceURL);
msg.send(url, urn, msgEnvelope);//urn is soapAction, url is the target URL
SOAPTransport transport = msg.getSOAPTransport();
Message receivePost = new Message();
receivePost.setSOAPTransport(transport);
Envelope receiveEnvelope = receivePost.receiveEnvelope();
