Thanks for your reply Ben and Antoine.
Ben: In my case what I am planning to implement, I won't be able to use

So, prob. I will have to use a work around of writing down the values to
some file. But, still I am wondering if I could find out some other option.
Thanks,
- Dharmesh.

properties set in an antcall are not visible when the antcall returns.
antcall (and ant) generate new tables of properties and reference ids.
