Can anyone please let me know where is the mistake happened.

Answer 1

Before delving into XSLT I would suggest to take an XPath tutorial, if you have an input document where the root element is named entities then a path beginning with /record will never select anything as it looks for a root element named record.
Depending on your XSLT version you also need to take the default namespace xmlns="http://schemas.ockhm.com/api/1/" in the XML into account, if you really have an XSLT 2 processor the easiest is to declare xpath-default-namespace="http://schemas.ockhm.com/api/1/" on your stylesheet's root element.
That way a path like //record will select any record elements in that namespace.
