Primary Outcome  
Outcome  TimePoints 
The primary outcome will be Mean duration to achieve at least 70% of the target nutrition requirement after the start of enteral feeding(in hours). The achievement rate will be calculated as the number of days in which at least 70% of the target nutrition requirement is achieved divided by the total number of days of feeding days. Gastrointestinal intolerance during the first 7 days after the start of enteral feeding   Enteral feeding will be initiated with in 48 hours of ICU admission after randomization.Target nutrition will be achieved as early as possible and study will monitor patient for seven days for target achieved. 
 
Secondary Outcome  
Outcome  TimePoints 
Secondary endpoints will include ICU mortality, 28-day mortality, length of stay in the ICU and hospital   Secondary endpoints will include ICU mortality, 28-day mortality, length of stay in the ICU and hospital

Brief Summary   NUTRITION IS IMPORTANT PART FOR TREATMENT OF CRITICALLY ILL PATIENTS.METHOD OF NUTRITION IN CRITICALLY ILL PATIENTS IS ALWAYS DEBATABLE.ENTRTAL FEEDINF IS PREFFERED OVER PARENTERAL FEEDING.IN ENTERAL FEEDING INTERMITTENT FEEDING IS MORE PHYSIOLOGICAL BUT CONTINUOUS FEEDING MAY BE MORE TOLERABLE.IN INDIA THERE HAS NOT BEEN ANY STUDY TO PROVE THIS.
