Hi @Deepika61 ,

I would suggest you to use UI policy for the same as its easy to maintain and you can easily define condition.

@Deepika61 

using client script you can do this

1) onLoad client script on sc_task table

function onLoad(){
	// Add your code here

	var ritm = g_form.getReference('request_item', callBackMethod);

}

function callBackMethod(ritm){
	if(ritm.cat_item == 'catItemSysId'){
		// add your code here to make fields on sc_task form as mandatory or read-only
	}
}

2 ways

1) you can use display business rule + onLoad client script on sc_task

If you require complex scripting logic for mandatory or read-only, I would suggest to use this

Display BR:

(function executeRule(current, previous /*null when async*/) {

	// Add your code here
	g_scratchpad.catItemName = current.request_item.cat_item.name;

})(current, previous);

onLoad client script

function onLoad(){
	// Add your code here
	if(g_scratchpad.catItemName.toString() == 'Your Catalog Item Name Here'){
		// add your code here to make fields on sc_task form as mandatory or read-only
	}
}

OR

2) you can also create UI policy on sc_task and add that in condition field by dot walking Request Item field
