Hi sangeetha, gasses is common during 6-10 weeks baby, important is it should pass, if your baby is crying too much becos of gasses and not able to pass gas, take half teaspoon of astofedia (hing) powder in few drops of water and apply it around navel, try not using any drops or colic syrups.

Apart from burping the baby, it is important to watch the mother's food habits & timing. Avoid foods that can cause flatulence in adults even mildly because the effect on babies will be even more. Eating plenty of greens , rotis and dal is better. Avoid fried foods, packed snacks & biscuits. Having said that, babies usually fart a lot. Its good idea to take their feet and touch it to their forehead when they get up after sleeping. They love it and it helps pass the gas!
