Can anyone reply for my question please.

I'm not sure by your last reply if you do have Apple Care + or not....if you do you can claim under this warranty, if not this may be a problem.

As you have damaged your iPad already your warranty could already be voided because of this.

But try these steps which will recalibrate your home button.

Step 1: Launch one of the stock apps on your iDevice (Weather, iTunes, Stocks, etc.).

Step 2: Press and hold the power button until you see the “slide to power off” prompt, then release the power button.

Step 3: Press and hold your home button until the the “slide to power off” prompt disappears and the app force quits.

You should now be on your home screen and your home button should be recalibrated! Recalibrating your home button this way will work on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch.

If this doesn't work try a reset
Hold the power off button and the home button simultaneously, keep holding them in and you will see the power off slide appear and disappear, wait until you see the Apple logo appear before releasing the buttons. It will take a little longer for your iPad to start. Let us know how you go.

Please do not bump one of your posts to gain attention, our Rules state that this is only permissible once after 48 hours.

You can try the Assistive Touch feature which will put the home button on your screen. Settings - General - accessibility - Assistive Touch. You can also create new gestures here also.

It's working. So if my iPad is accidentally damaged then it's void warranty right?

From what I know it does, especially a drop as this has the potential to knock something loose inside the iPad.

I don't know how you've damaged your iPad but you could try Apple and see what they say........
