There are table tag in HTML but here in ISC you can't use table tag in your articles as per the posting guidelines. Editors can help you in this case.

One way could be to make a table separately and then take its image and then upload that image by properly sizing into the article body.
Please take care in selecting the proper font for the value written in table cells so that they are easily distinguishable in the table after it is photographed and inserted in the article body.

Sanjeev Gupta,
Kamal Kishore is right - next to the box of the 'Article Body' where you put in the text of the article, the instruction is clear that the HTML table tags are not allowed.
Umesh is also right in the suggestion that he has given. On the few occasions that I wanted to put in a Table, I would create one in Word or Excel and then take a screenshot of it. I would save that as a JPEG image, upload it with the attachment feature, and then copy-paste the tag created by the attachment feature into the text where I wanted it placed.
My methods- In the case of an article on admissions, if I want to mention the fees, then I would take a screenshot of it from the official notification/brochure/flyer as applicable. I would then save it, crop and resize it if required, and then use the attachment feature as stated above.
In the case of a print advt. in a newspaper, I take the top part, which has the heading of 'admission notification 2024' and/or of the course. I sometimes paste the saved screenshot onto a blank PPT slide, then enhance it (make it darker or lighter as required), put a border and crop it if required. Then I resave the slide as a JPEG image, resizing and cropping further if required.
Naturally, whether you create the Table or take a screenshot from an official source, you need to credit the source. Just below the image, you can put 'Image source: [mention official brochure or print advt. with the newspaper name and date, or whatever is applicable]'. You can refer to a few of my recent admissions articles to understand.
Note- I have found that the best method is to use the Snip Tool to take the screenshot as it can be cropped, too, at the same time, then save and uploaded to the article.
