      Hello Parv,

      When using merge fields for email templates the email is restricted to the object it is being sent from. You cannot reference a parent objects fields. So, you need to create a visualforce template instead of standard template.

      Hope this helps.

      Thanks.

      Hi,

      Please make sure you are using merge field only to that object(Account).

      Hope it helps.
