    Good day Ravikumar < @Ravikumar P >

    Since we cannot see your screen or read mind, telling that you get error or that something failed without providing the exact error message is usually useless. Please try to provide the exact error message which you get (after removing any sensitive/personal information)

    In general not any vNet fits to be used for Menaged instance. Best option is to leab the vNet live when you delete a managed instance so you could always create another one using the same vNet. In this document you can get information about how to create a vNet which fit for Managed Instance. You can use the existing virtual network and subnet if they're configured according to the SQL Managed Instance virtual network requirements.

    In first glance I am guessing that your vNet does not fit the requirements.

    I recommend to start with a new vNet and follow the instructions in the links I added above.
