In my website i have big sitemap. So i compressed t using Gzip. and the format of sitemap is like
When i submit this sitemap to webmaster it shows unsupported file.

1I would ask you how you compressed the file, what tool did you use and what OS. For example, it may be that X product on Windows does not create the .gz file format that is expected.– closetnocJul 1, 2015 at 15:17

Looks like your sitemap within the sitemap is damaged or not a gzip as it fails 2/3 of my tests.
Test 1/3: winrar - No errors found during test operation
Test 2/3: tar
bybe@ubuntu:~$ tar -tzf test.gz > /dev/null
bybe@ubuntu:~$ tar -tzf sitemapCP38.xml.gz > /dev/null
tar: This does not look like a tar archive
tar: Skipping to next header
tar: Exiting with failure status due to previous errors
Test 3/3: gunzip
bybe@ubuntu:~$ gunzip -c sitemapCP38.xml.gz | tar t > /dev/null
tar: This does not look like a tar archive
tar: Skipping to next header
tar: Exiting with failure status due to previous errors
