Contact either the place of purchase and ask for refund as you have an issue or contact Xperia care http://www.sonymobile.com/global-en/support/contact-us/

I checked with seller on sunday they informed to check wit sony ASC and get DOA, and I got the same from Sony ASC..

Does Sony will replace with new one? As I got DOA or will provide me the same mobile?

You phone is not Dead on arrival as it has a faulty pixel and does turn on so this is a issue for the seller - Sounds like the seller is trying to fob you off

If that is the case how come I got DOA from service centre?? They could had informed me the same what ypu had informed...

DOA is a term that can be used in a few circumstances depending on the local warranty conditions. In some regions it simply means that the phone had a fault shortly after purchase. For any service/warranty questions you are always best to speak with your local  Xperia Care team directly.

DOA must have different meanings in different countries

New Euro law gives a buyer upto 14 days from reciept of an item in which to reject the item,

If it is found to be faulty then this is known as ELF or Early life failure and gives the buyer upto 30 days

For a handset that was purchased in-store:

1. If your new handset exhibits faults within the Early Life Failure period, please contact the Store of purchase as soon as possible to advise them of this.
2. Take your handset including all packaging and accessories provided with phone to the store of purchase
3. Advise the sales assistant that you believe your handset is covered under the ELF/DOA Policy
4. Handset will need to be sent to an authorised assessment centre for approval. Once approval is provided you will receive a replacement handset.

• Handset misuse such as physical or liquid ingression may void the ELF/DOA Policy.
