Welcome @rjdugar
Do you mean you want each each iteration of the loop to call a different subflow instance?
One way would be to have a counter property on the message that you increment each time you loop, and then use a Switch node to route the message to the appropriate subflow instance node based on the counters value.
Does that make sense?
(btw, have moved to the #general category as #development is for development of Node-RED itself, not general usage questions)
