I have a window ac that I used it earlier. Recently shifted my premises and my bed room has a window with two wood doors that open oppositely and a lengthy wood stick in the middle. Window is safeguarded with iron fittings on either sides of middle wood stick and this is making unsuitable for my ac installation. My owners are not permitting to cut the middle wood stick. Added to this iron gauze is also should be cut for installation. Are there any alternate procedure for installation . Can I keep my window ac completely out side the window

Most window units are designed for double hung windows. If you want to place it in a casement window (or a sliding window) you really should use a unit designed specifically for that. Here's an example:
However, anything can be hacked. If you build a proper bracket/shelf, and then enclose the top part (plexiglass, for instance) you can probably use what you have (provided it fits, of course).
Since it sounds like it might be difficult for you to get to a lumberyard to build your own solution, you might be better off using a pre-made product. AC-Safe, makes Universal Air Conditioner Supports that might be useful in your situation.
The system requires you to screw the platform into the window sill (which may or may not be possible in your situation), then simply rests against the outside of the building to support the A\C unit.
I've also seen brackets that mount to the bottom of A\C unit itself, and offer support against the outside of the building (but I was unable to find an example online. I think Thermwell makes them).

Considering the circumstances you may be facing having to shift your premises back to the previously workable configuration!!
On another track you could consider using a different type of portable A/C unit altogether. There are available floor standing units that vent out through a large flexible hose to a window. There is typically an adjustable panel assembly that can be fitted to the window (see below). Note that there are also styles of these that use two of the flexible hoses.
