Thanks for your time Wolfgang.
But Even if I ignore GOT pointer my problem still persists. The problem of bootloader trying to jump to an address which does not exist.
I compile for ROM version(config.mk) the code downloads in flash but when it relocates itself to SDRAM, the address it tries to jump is a "valid" SDRAM address but I don't see that address anywhere in u-boot.dis. All the addresses in u-boot.dis are relative to the TEXT_BASE I have given in ROM version.
Do I need to make some changes in linker file ? For the same board and YAMON bootloader the disassembled file has initial flash addresses and then SDRAM addresses for opcodes after the code is relocated. I am not expecting the same from u-boot but I am unable to understand u-boot policy regarding this.
Thanks and regards, Pooja
