How to solve this issue? Any suggestions?

Hi Sumit

You are trying to update the same record that is already present in the trigger context.Which means the record of account is already in trigger and you are trying to update it once again in the getCredebilityOfParentAcc method.
Either you will have to skip the accounts already present in trigger.New or if the requirrement is to consider them then that part of code should be implemented in before update without DML action.

Cheers!!!
