      Hi Suraj,

      public class AccountProcessor {
      static public Integer count;
      @future public static void countContacts(Set<Id> AcctId ){
      List<Account> Acclist=[select name,AccountNumber from Account where Id in:AcctId];
      if(Acclist.size()>0){
      for(Account A:Acclist){
      count=0;
      count=[select count() from Contact where AccountId=:A.Id];
      A.Number_of_Contacts__c=count;//[select count() from Contact where AccountId=:A.Id];
      update(A);
      }
      }

      where Number_of_Contacts__c is the custom Field on Account which store the Number of Related Contact in Account.

      Hope this will Help You

      Hi Suraj,

      A much-optimized code would be -

      Public static Map<Id,Integer> countRelatedContact( Set<Id> accId){

      Map<Id,Integer> relatedCountMap = new Map<Id,Integer>();
      if(!accId.isEmpty){

      for(Account acc : [select Id, name,(Select Id, Name from Contacts) from Account where Id in:accId];){

      relatedCountMap.put(acc.Id,acc.Contacts.size());
      }

      return relatedCountMap;
      }

      This will return a Map of Account Id and # of related Contacts to that Account record. Hope this helps you as per your scenario.

      Thanks,
      Subhendu
