Preetish,

There are many ways to do this. The phone line(s) will need to be
connected to FXO interfaces. You can get single units or cards to do 4
or more lines.

If you have no analog (normal) telephones that need to be used, you
will usually want to purchase SIP phones or use software. If you do
have analog phones, you want one FXS interface per phone to connect to
asterisk.

Once you have the hardware hooked up, asterisk will route the calls
according to the dialplan you create.

Take a look at a site like http://voipsupply.com or a more local
equivalent if you can find one that sells this stuff. It's a good way
to see what is currently available and get an idea of prices.
