I would like to know the best way to make a HTML5 responsive website properly functioning in IE7 and IE8 as well without compromising any design.
I have gone through responsive website issue in IE7 and IE8 but rather than respond.js is there any other way to achieve this?
Also if I have some rounded corners used along with shadows in my blocks, if I use css3 it would not work in lower versions of IE9. Any best possible way to follow while working on these kind of requirements?
Thanks in advance.

You'll need so called polyfills for all technologies you're using if you don't want to use the principle of graceful degradation. Here's an excellent overview about basically all of them.
So, if you want IE old to support media queries you need a media query polyfill, respond.js is one of them. You could also use Modernizr, which has a MQ polyfill included.
