If you know the Group name or the sys_id, you can use the isMemberOf() function,

@Sagar_pawar You can use GlideAjax to query server and in the script include you can write the below line to check if the user is part of group or not.

return gs.getUser().isMemberOf('<GROUP NAME HERE>');

GlideAjax Documentation link with example: https://docs.servicenow.com/en-US/bundle/tokyo-application-development/page/script/ajax/topic/p_AJAX...

Please mark as correct answer if this solves your issue.

Hi @Sagar_pawar ,

you can use below onload client script and script include.

1. Onload Client Script:

function onLoad() {
    var sysid = g_user.userID; //get current user sysid
    var ga = new GlideAjax('global.CheckuserGroup'); //script include name
    ga.addParam('sysparm_name', 'getgroup'); //function name
    ga.addParam('sysparm_name_sysid', sysid); //passing sysid to server
    ga.getXMLAnswer(getGroup);
    function getGroup(response) {
        if (response == 'true') {
            g_form.addInfoMessage('Part of group');
        } else {
            g_form.addInfoMessage('Not Part of group');
        }
    }
}

2. Script Include:

var CheckuserGroup = Class.create();
CheckuserGroup.prototype = Object.extendsObject(AbstractAjaxProcessor, {
    getgroup: function() {
        var usersysid = this.getParameter('sysparm_name_sysid');//getting usersysid from client
        var mem = new GlideRecord("sys_user_grmember");
        mem.addQuery('user', usersysid); //filtering current user
        mem.addQuery('group', '8a4dde73c6112278017a6a4baf547aa7'); //add group sysid
        mem.query();
        if (mem.next()) {
            return true;
        } else {
            return false;
        }
    },
    type: 'CheckuserGroup'
});
