Hi, waiting for experts reply on this question. Can I directly use such complex type in my web service?

Hi, in a WCF Service Project under "WCF-Options" you find a Checkbox like "Activate XSD as typedefinition language" (don't know the exact wording in english). If enabled you can add a XSD file to your Service Project and you get a generated class corresponding to your xsd. Should be simple...

@Johannesnestler, I am not developing WCF application. I am creating simple web service & want to access that complex type in my web service method.

So you can use the xsd Tool manually to generate the classes.
See https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/x6c1kb0s(v=VS.100).aspx[^]
for documentation.
You find the tool in the .NET SDK Folder. E.g C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v8.1A\bin\NETFX 4.5.1 Tools
