Got the solution . small mistake

NSString *str;
    if ([type isEqualToString:@"folder"])
    {
        str =  [NSString stringWithFormat:@"https://api.box.com/2.0/folders/%@?recursive=true&access_token=%@",folder_id,str_access_token];

    }
    else
    {
        str =  [NSString stringWithFormat:@"https://api.box.com/2.0/files/%@?access_token=%@&If-Match=%@",folder_id,str_access_token,etag];

    }
    ASIFormDataRequest *postParams = [ASIFormDataRequest requestWithURL:[NSURL URLWithString:str]];
    [postParams setRequestMethod:@"DELETE"];
