This depends on the multicast address (not a reserved or special address) and the TTL (Time To Live) field value.

See Multicast over TCP/IP HOWTO: Multicast Explained.[^].

Can u explain shortly .....

Explain what?
As already noted by other comments, your question is rather unclear.

What I understand was that you want to know which network segments will receive a send multicast packet.

My answer:
This depends on the used multicast address (if it is forwarded by routers or not), and the TTL (how many systems will forward the packets until they are dropped).

The above link describes how multicast works.
