Hi, Tarun.

I'm sorry but your request is out of scope of our technical support.
It rather apply to Joomla! than to JomSocial as all core features like password saving or registration is handled by Joomla!
JomSocial doesn't create, store or encrypt any passwords.
This is done by Joomla! core.
Password once provided is encrypted by MD5 and stored in Joomla! tables.
Once encrypted can't be decrypted.
Please, read more about password encryption and storing in Joomla! or post on forum.jomsocial.com.
