Hello All,
I got a answer.

Go to the work space location and then move to this location : .metadata\.plugins\org.eclipse.core.runtime\.settings.
In that folder you can find the file: org.eclipse.wst.xml.ui.prefs

Node Id : org.eclipse.wst.xml.ui
Key1: xml_content_assist_default_page_sort_order
Key2: xml_content_assist_own_page_sort_order

Value : org.eclipse.wst.xml.ui.proposalCategory.xmlTemplates\u0000org.eclipse.wst.xml.ui.proposalCategory.xmlTags\u0000

In the above value, you can the order of category

Use this following code:

Preferences prefs = (Preferences) InstanceScope.INSTANCE
				.getNode(Node Id);
prefs.put(Key1,
				value);
prefs.put(Key2,
				value);
