Hi @Jyothi Ravipati 

One way to do this is with the built-in automation rules.  For example, you could create a rule such as:

• trigger: issue transitions to Done
• condition: issue type is subtask
• branch: on the parent of the issue
  • action: create the new subtask

To learn more about automation rules, please look at this documentation and template library:
