Dear anil ,
i guess you are asking the sign convention and not sign convention and that too in ray optics.
1. Take distances measured along the propagation of ray to be +ve, otherwise negative.
2. measure distances above principal ray to be +ve otherwise negative.
and remember in calculation of magnification use quantities with proper signs.
