Hi @Saumya Mishra 

Welcome to the community.

  1. If the project is company managed then follow these steps:

    In board settings; Set swimlanes to stories, not queries.

  2. The sub-tasks might be being filtered out of the board, which we fixed using a better filtering:

    Filter tasks using issuetype in (Task, Sub-Task) OR issuetype in (standardIssueTypes(), subTaskIssueTypes()).

Hi @Saumya Mishra , Welcome to the Atlassian Community

If your board filter is not filtering-in sub-tasks, you will not see them on the board. 
Any quick filters on the board could hold a JQL phrase that would filter out sub-tasks. 

Please start by providing the board filter so we can look at it. You find this under Board Configuration - General

Kind regards,
Dick

Hi @Saumya Mishra 

 

If it's a Scrum board it's normal that it's not displayed in the backlog, but should be displayed in the current sprint section. It's because it do not make sense to plan a story without all the subtasks under it.

I agree, but in our sprint board, we can only see tasks, bugs and epics, but not subtasks under type
