Anyone please guide me how I perform load testing on Android Applications. Please suggest any tool with guidelines.

To test the load of an Android application, you can use JMeter.

If you need to test Android application performance itself, i.e. find the slowest functions, measure activities switching/rendering/calculation speed, CPU, RAM, Battery usage and so on - the best (if not only) way is using a profiler tool:
If your goal is to simulate hundreds/thousands of users concurrently using multiple instances of the mobile application which communicates with the backend or database, to wit you need to conduct performance testing of the backend - it's also possible with a special load testing tool.
The choice of the tool depends on several factors, the main of them are:
- Network protocol(s) used by your application
- Ability of the tool to be run in clustered mode in case if one instance is not powerful enough to create the necessary load
