Hi,
My personal recommendation is to actually build a catalog item that allows the group managers to "control" their groups. You can allow them to add/remove users and change the manager (if applicable) which then writes it from a "server" perspective and doesn't require modification to ACLs and all that. You can also enhance the catalog item workflow to also do a check against your ITIL license count (if the group is assigned ITIL) to also ensure that the submission doesn't cause you to exceed your approved ITIL licenses you've purchased as part of your contract and instead can open a dialog between you and the submitter to find their needs and it also helps show your company that you all may need to consider purchasing more licenses (you can back this request up by showing all the requests that have been submitted).
You can create this pretty easily with a few variables (firstly a "group" referenced that is set to only show groups they manage), then a few other variables as needed (one of which being a list collector to auto-populate who are current members) and then the submitter can simply click from left to right to add more, or from right to left to remove, then once they submit...your scripts do all the work and go from there.

Hi Yaseen,
Please follow the below steps on your ACL to set Group.manager is dynamic true-
After selecting the above option please select group-->group fields
Now select Manger
Now select is Dynamic me
Put it in all the ACL's for create and write written for the table "sys_user_grmember"
If you want admins to perform all the actions please mark admin Overrides to 'true', this means that the ACL will not apply for the admins.
