Insert a table then insert a TOC inside (Insert>Indexes & Tables>Indexes & Tables). Note that to update the TOC, it seems the table context toolbar overrides the TOC one. So to update, you'll have to go to Tools>Update>...

I tried to do but the table is not coming properly. I wanted to have table of contents in a tabular form for eg index pages which gives summary of chapter no, description and page no.

A ToC with summaries? You mean something like this?
1) the firs chapter.........p1
here follows a description of chapter 1
2)etc.

I don't think there is a way of doing that automatically.
BtW, creating multiple threads on the same subject is not a good way to get an anwser, i suggest you read this.
