    Hi Khushal

    Your child-theme functions.php should contain this content at a minimum.

    <?php// Exit if accessed directlyif ( !defined( 'ABSPATH' ) ) exit;// BEGIN ENQUEUE PARENT ACTION// Do not modify or remove comment markers above or below:        if ( !function_exists( 'chld_thm_cfg_parent_css' ) ):    function chld_thm_cfg_parent_css() {        wp_enqueue_style( 'chld_thm_cfg_parent', trailingslashit( get_template_directory_uri() ) . 'style.css' );    }endif;add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'chld_thm_cfg_parent_css' );// END ENQUEUE PARENT ACTION?>

    You should then be able to activate your child-theme.
