Hey Vivek. Welcome to MilesWeb Forums.

You can get the details from the file named local.xml under your magento (https://www.milesweb.com/magento-hosting.php) installation. Simply to connect to hosting account via File Manager OR FTP. Under your website's root directory open file app/etc/local.xml. In this file find for <connection>. Under this section you will get the database details. Example, host, username, password, dbname, etc.

I hope this helps  8)
