Hi Somen

Try this... Go to the Blog page type in the tree, under the form tab untick the 'Allow comments from anonymous readers:' and tick the 'Require e-mail address from readers:'. This should help.

Along with this, make sure the Comments View web part has 'check permissions' selected, which would make sure only selected people/roles can see the comments view/add comments, which you may want to configure.

Another thing that could help is making sure the 'Comments must be approved:' is ticked to help moderating comments.

Thanks Ilesh

Thanks Ilesh for the reply.when I untick the 'Allow comments from anonymous readers:' and tick the 'Require e-mail address from readers:' the list of comments shows for all user but subscription button is not coming. I need that user can see the subscription link even they are not login.When user click the subscribe button it will ask the mail id of the user and subscribe.

Hi Somen, did you tick the 'Allow subscription to comments:'?

When you go to the Blog post page, do you see it then?

Because the webpart for the comments viewer is together with the subscription link, I would recommend to clone the web part and then separate the comments viewer and subscription link. So take the subscription link out and then work with the authentication / permissions with that.

Or look at it a different way (and I know this is not what you require), but have both commenting and subscribing on. But commenting is all moderated, so no comments appear unless they have been approved.
