Here is some :

#!/bin/sh

for i in $(awk -F: '$3 > 100 { print $1 }' /etc/passwd ); do
echo User: $i " " Groups: groups $i
echo LastLogin: `last $i | head -1`
done

Hello Girish
i think you don't need a script.

You can launch 2 command:

"who" and "finger"

If you need a script to have a "report", the previous answear is good.

If you are using NIS or LDAP, you may have different methods/commands.
