Hey Gagan, If there are more partitions than consumers in a group, some consumers are allocated multiple partitions.
If there are no more messages for the partitions that have been allocated to a consumer, that consumer will continue to poll until messages show up in those partitions. It won't start consuming messages from partitions that have been assigned to another consumer.
