Hi Tejas,
Thanks.
I Tried php toolkit sample code  of creating a custom object and got this Error

Function ("create") is not a valid method for this service

Here is the code. 
<?php
// SOAP_CLIENT_BASEDIR - folder that contains the PHP Toolkit and your WSDL
// $USERNAME - variable that contains your Salesforce.com username (must be in the form of an email)
// $PASSWORD - variable that contains your Salesforce.com password

//define("Force.com-Toolkit-for-PHP-master/soapclient/api_files/soapclient");
//require_once (Force.com-Toolkit-for-PHP-master/soapclient/SforcePartnerClient.php');
require_once ('Force.com-Toolkit-for-PHP-master/soapclient/SforceEnterpriseClient.php');
require_once ('Force.com-Toolkit-for-PHP-master/soapclient/SforceMetadataClient.php');
//require_once ('Force.com-Toolkit-for-PHP-master/soapclient/userAuth.php');


//$mySforceConnection = new SforcePartnerClient();
$mySforceConnection = new SforceEnterpriseClient();
//$mySoapClient = $mySforceConnection->createConnection(SOAP_CLIENT_BASEDIR.'/partner.wsdl.xml');
$mySoapClient = $mySforceConnection->createConnection('wsdl.jsp.xml');
$loginResult = $mySforceConnection->login($usename, $password);
echo "<pre>";
print_r($loginResult);
echo "</pre>";
$myMetadataConnection = new SforceMetadataClient('metadata.xml', $loginResult, $mySforceConnection);
echo "<pre>";
print_r($myMetadataConnection);
echo "</pre>";
try{
$customObject = new SforceCustomObject();
  $customObject->fullName = 'CustomObjFromPHP__c';
  $customObject->deploymentStatus = DEPLOYMENT_STATUS_DEPLOYED;

  $customObject->setDescription("A description");
  $customObject->setEnableActivities(true);
  $customObject->setEnableDivisions(false);
  $customObject->setEnableHistory(true);
  $customObject->setEnableReports(true);
  $customObject->setHousehold(false);
  $customObject->setLabel("My Custom Obj from PHP");
  $customField = new SforceCustomField();
  $customField->setFullName('MyCustomFieldb__c');
  $customField->setDescription('Description of New Field');
  $customField->setLabel('My Custom Field Label');
  $customField->setType('Text');

  $customObject->nameField = $customField;

  $customObject->pluralLabel = 'My Custom Objs from PHP';
  $customObject->sharingModel = SHARING_MODEL_READWRITE;

  print_r($myMetadataConnection->create($customObject));

} catch (Exception $e) {
  echo $myMetadataConnection->getLastRequest();
  echo $e->faultstring;
}
?>
