A:
Did you create a WCF Service Library, or a Windows Service to which you then added a WCF Service class and scaffold?
If so, then this will explain it.
The Publish option only appears for web projects in VS - so that's either the Website or the Web Application Project. Also, .svc files are only required for services that are hosted in Asp.Net as a file extension is needed (before any rewrite rules) to 'activate' the service host.
Create a new Website Application.
Add a new WCF service to it (which should also add the .svc), and then update the dummy interfaces & stub class with your service code.

@Rajesh - apologies if I sounded terse. This is your first SO question, so you're just getting to grips with it all. Welcome and hope you'll be asking many more, as well as hopefully answering a few! :)
