There are 2 general approaches and 2 vesta specific

General
1. Add custom record for www.sonisamaj.co.in to your hosts file
2. Use proxy server wich have custom record in hosts file.

Vesta related
1. Create new dns record test.sonisamaj.co and then point it to the new server ip. In vesta add this domain as an alias to existing domain.
2. Create wildcard record *.somedomain.com and point "A" record to the server ip. Then go to Vesta Control Panel open ip tab, edit ip settings and add wildcard domain without star as associated domain. Next time you create domain, it will automaticaly get alias where dots replaces with dashes. Like www-sonisamaj-co-in.somedomain.com.

Hello Sir,

Create new dns record soni.sonisamaj.co and then point it to the new server ip. In vesta add this domain as an alias to existing domain.

I have created the record as mentioned above suggestion but on checking it is showing me only pageok
not showing the actual content of the page sonisamaj.co.in

I have upload the site but unable to check it.

It seems like Vesta Control Panel is not installed on a server soni.sonisamaj.co.in
Are you sure ip address for new server is correct?

DNS record soni.sonisamaj.co.in is pointed to 162.243.12.15
Did you spot the difference? Seven is missing in the end.
Change it to 162.243.12.157 and you will get what you want.

Ranjib, please do not post passwords on this forum. It is not safe.
DNS propagation takes some. Make sure your pc resolve record correctly. Try to ping soni.sonisamaj.co.in and see if it returns correct record. By the way you can check the domain using http://www.hideoxy.com/
