END SCOPE;
Then, i am querying to check the result as below :
Select 
   [Measures].[Internet Sales Amount]
} on 0,
([Geography].[City].[All Geographies],
    [Date].[Calendar].[Calendar Year]
} on 1
From

Giving the Error as : 
CellOrdinal 0
VALUE #Error The  function expects a string or numeric expression for the  argument. A tuple set expression was used.
FORMATTED_VALUE #Error The  function expects a string or numeric expression for the  argument. A tuple set expression was used.

hi Mahesh,
You specified a level in the scope statement THIS:
[Product].[Product Categories].[Category]     ??
wich is not a  "cube coordinate"
If you complete it, let's say only the bikes, it will work:
SCOPE ( 
  [Geography].[City].[All Geographies], 
  [Date].[Calendar].[Calendar Year] ); 
  THIS = ([Measures].[Internet Sales Amount], 
  [Product].[Product Categories].[Category].&[1] ); 
END SCOPE
