Hi Chand,
I suggest you can a have a new more material number above the Whisy Botttle 700 ml. which can have Whicky Bottle 700 ml as a child material and similarly for 350 and 175 ml.

0020        Carton Box                         1  no
0030         Packing Strip                     5 nos.
0040         Packing Roll                       X nos
0050         Clips                                 X nos
For 350 ml whisky bottles your BOM items can be as follows :
0010        350ml Whisky Bottle          24 nos
0020        Carton Box                         1  no
0030         Packing Strip                     6 nos.
0040         Packing Roll                       X nos
0050         Clips                                 X nos
For 175 ml whisky bottles your BOM items can be as follows :
0010        350ml Whisky Bottle          42 nos
