Hi karanmilan,

You can check the cellular data usage on your iPhone to see which apps are using cellular data and how much. If you scroll all the way down below the apps, you will see the System Services. This is where the majority of your data will be used for thinks like Personal Hotspot, Documents & Sync, Messaging Services, Push notifications, etc.
