Hi Snehal Gaware,
 
Yes, It will not autoFill because you are calling the autoCal() methond from VF Page when user changing the values,

Try this below code this will works fine.
  
//Get the Currently logged in community user contact id
    String cntId = [SELECT Id, ContactId, Name FROM User WHERE Id =: UserInfo.getUserId()].ContactId;
    caseObject.ContactId = cntId;
if(cntId != null){
//calling autofilling method
 autoCal();
}
Let me know if you have any questions, Mark this as a best answer if it solves your Problem.

Regards,

Hi Snehal Gaware,

Try the below code 
public AutoPopulateExample(ApexPages.StandardController controller){
    con = new Contact();
    caseObject = new case();
    caseObject = (Case)controller.getRecord();
    //Get the Currently logged in community user contact id
    String cntId = [SELECT Id, ContactId, Name FROM User WHERE Id =: UserInfo.getUserId()].ContactId;
    caseObject.ContactId = cntId;
    attachmentObject = new Attachment();
}

Hi Prasath,
I have tried the above code. It is populating logged in user name, but fields related to it are not aupopulating now.
Before trying above code it was working fine, when i manually selecting contact name in field the related fields(Account, requester first name ,last name, phone) are autopopulating before saving the record.
