        this.countryCode = countryCode;
        this.mobileNumber = mobileNumber;
    }

    }

    public void setMobileNumber(String mobileNumber) {
        this.mobileNumber = mobileNumber;
    }
}

Response:-

public class GenerateOTPResponse {

    @SerializedName("status")
    @Expose
    String status;

    @SerializedName("response")
    @Expose
    String response;

    public GenerateOTPResponse(String status, String response) {
        this.status = status;
        this.response = response;
    }

    public String getStatus() {
        return status;

}

my interface:-

@POST("generateOTP")
    Call<GenerateOTPResponse> generateOTP(@Body GenerateOTPRequest generateOTPRequest);

    @POST("verifyOTP")
    Call<VerifyOTPResponse> verifyOTP(@Body VerifyOTPRequest verifyOTPRequest);

Just use annotation:

public interface Service {  
@Headers("application-Key", your key)
@GET("/example")
Call<List<Example>> getExamples();
}

All examples are available here: https://futurestud.io/tutorials/retrofit-add-custom-request-header

but where to call this – dhananjay sharma Jul 15 '17 at 10:34
You must define an interface like here, with specific endpoint provided in @GET annotation that you want to fetch data and then just make it like i suggested here. – K.Os Jul 15 '17 at 10:37
please tell me where and how to use this – dhananjay sharma Jul 15 '17 at 10:37
You did not provide code for the API class(final API service1), it should be done there and it should be an interface. See the simple examples that i provide link to. Eventually you can set the header in Retrofit builder like @Avinash suggested – K.Os Jul 15 '17 at 10:44
can u please tell me why am i getting null response in verification of otp by looking in the cod – dhananjay sharma Jul 16 '17 at 07:58

You can use @Header annotation for your api method as it is clearly stated in a documentation https://square.github.io/retrofit/

@Headers("XYZ: value")

you can set it in your base retrofit file

request = original.newBuilder()
                            .header("header key", "your header)
                            .header("x-requested-with", "XMLHttpRequest")
                            .method(original.method(), original.body())
                            .build();

                    okhttp3.Response response = chain.proceed(request);

@Header

this is a Retrofit specific annotation which will allow you the pass the request headers to the targeting HTTP endpoint, where every argument represents a request header entry.
