In the second page there will be an Index page of tabular form ,
Then experiment's conducted respectively,
For each experiment there will be AIM
, Theory

and figures
if any ,
I tried to search for any template for this type of document but I got some physics experiments manual not in the format I specified above.
how can I make this format ,Is which \documentclass
will be suitable for me?

I found a simple template that could probably fit your needs, University/School Laboratory Report. Nevertheless you could define some macros on your own, since it is not that complicated.
Do you really have to create a new class file? Maybe you just have to set up a report or article document properly, like in the example in the link above. Afterwards you can put the set up into your own *.tex or *.sty file (usepackage) -- some information about that can be found in clsguide – Documentation of LaTeX class and package writing.
I recommend to use the standard article class for a lab report/manual, since I am also using this class for all of my lab reports and it works fine.
