CREATE TABLE [dbo].[CategoryMaster](
[CategoryId] [int] NOT NULL,
[ParentId] [int] NULL,
[Name] [varchar](50) NULL,
CONSTRAINT [PK_CategoryMaster] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED
(
[CategoryId] ASC
)WITH (PAD_INDEX = OFF, STATISTICS_NORECOMPUTE = OFF, IGNORE_DUP_KEY = OFF, ALLOW_ROW_LOCKS = ON, ALLOW_PAGE_LOCKS = ON) ON [PRIMARY]
) ON [PRIMARY]
GO
INSERT [dbo].[CategoryMaster] ([CategoryId], [ParentId], [Name]) VALUES (1, NULL, N'Toys & Games')
GO
INSERT [dbo].[CategoryMaster] ([CategoryId], [ParentId], [Name]) VALUES (2, 1, N'Art And Crafts')

You can create a recursive function like below:
CREATE FUNCTION Create_Json(@CategoryId INT, @IsRoot INT)
RETURNS VARCHAR(MAX)
BEGIN
DECLARE @Json NVARCHAR(MAX) = '{}', @Name NVARCHAR(MAX), @Children NVARCHAR(MAX)
SET @Json = (SELECT P.[Name],JSON_QUERY(dbo.Create_Json(P.CategoryId, 2) ) AS Children
FROM [dbo].[CategoryMaster] AS P
WHERE P.ParentId = @CategoryId
FOR JSON AUTO);
IF(@IsRoot = 1)
BEGIN
SELECT @Name = P.[Name] FROM [dbo].[CategoryMaster] AS P WHERE P.CategoryId = @CategoryId
SET @Json = '"result": {"Name":"' + @Name + '","Children":' + CAST(@Json AS NVARCHAR(MAX)) + '}'
SET @IsRoot = 0
END
RETURN @Json
END
and call it like:
select dbo.Create_Json(1, 1)
Please find the db<>fiddle here.
