I changed cleint configuration bindings section equal to service configuration. I changed client configuration as given below.
<bindings>
<basicHttpBinding>
<binding name="BasicHttpBinding_ICARetriever">
<security mode="Transport">
</security>
</binding>
</basicHttpBinding>
</bindings>
once i did this i got access denied exception. Then i changed app pool identity from NetworkService to LocalSystem. And it worked like a charm I got the response back. I tried again changing NetworkService to Defaultappoolidentity in app pool then also it worked. But if i remove from client configuration it is giving Error like "provided URI scheme 'https' is invalid; expected 'http'.".Let me know if you guys have any other thoughts on this.
