Which JDK are you using for running jvmtop?

Ok - is it a real JDK (or just an JRE?)

Ok..i changed it to  a completed jdk installation and it started working. How 
come it is showing 3GB for HPMAX for jvmtop program.

Good. I'll will add a documentation hint which clearly states that jvmtop 
requires a JDK to work properly.

To answer your additional question:
If you start the jar by yourself then the default memory settings apply (this 
is also the case for every other java program you start), which is for HPMAX 
often half the RAM of your machine. So this has nothing to do with jvmtop. But 
you're are free to limit the maximum heap for jvmtop using the appropriate jvm 
arguments.
