How can I fill the entire screen using template node of node-red-dashboard package?

Pallette: node-red-dashboard 3.6.2  
Node: template

Options: Hide the title bar  
Sizes: 1x1 Horizontal 59, Vertical 59 (This was set to find the most )

Width of the tab is set to 32 in the "Edit dashboard group node".  
Size 32 \* 18 in the "Edit template node"

Though there is still margin on left, bottom, right.

My screen 1920\*1080

Not answering your question I'm afraid. But WHY? If you want to create your own custom page, why not use UIBUILDER which will give you a lot more control and less hassle?

I should check ui-builder probably, I found it a bit confusing so far, currently I am using the template because in the template I can stream live data from the flow and get inputs in the flow from template.

You can do that with uibuilder as well. 😀

You can create a static page for your basic stuff and then you have multiple ways to send updates depending on your needs and your preferred way of working and experience.

Happy to help if you like. But there is also a walkthrough in the docs and a similar walkthrough on YouTube that should get you up and running at least with an example page.
