Not able to access android market

Welcome to Android Forums, babdkar.
To access the Android Market, there are several criteria. First you must have a device that runs Android from a manufacturer who has licensed access to the market for its handsets. You're good with Samsung in that respect. You also must live in a country where market access is permitted. You can see the current list here.
Your phone must also be registered with a gmail account and be connected to a data source, either 3G/4G or Wifi. If you connect via Wifi only make sure port 5228 is open on your router.
