Hi, Rahul

Add this to your publish profile to modify the temporary directory for package/publish:

<AspnetCompileMergeIntermediateOutputPath>c:\temppublish\</AspnetCompileMergeIntermediateOutputPath>

For this Do:

Go to your web project folder, navigate to Properties\PublishProfiles folder.
open your profile file profile_name.pubxml (not the profile_name.pubxml.user)
copy/past <AspnetCompileMergeIntermediateOutputPath>c:\temppublish\</AspnetCompileMergeIntermediateOutputPath> under the <PropertyGroup> tag
save your file, you would be able to publish your website using this profile
