Giri - in the push button callback, check the visibility state of the panel. If it is OFF, then show the panel. And if it is ON, then hide it. For example, the code in GUIDE may look like

function pushbutton1_Callback(hObject, eventdata, handles)

if strcmpi(get(handles.uipanel1, 'Visible'), 'on')
    set(handles.uipanel1, 'Visible', 'off');
else
    set(handles.uipanel1, 'Visible', 'on');
end
