I have a function…in which I have return type as table variable…
But performance will be increased if we use temp tables..as we have more data.

No, you cannot “return” a temp table – you can create that temp table before calling your function, and have your function write data into that temp table.
But this has a tendency to get rather messy …. you need to make sure to have the temp table created before calling the function…..
Have you really, honestly measured the performance of the two approaches?? I don’t think temp tables are just always faster…. the approach with the table variable seems a lot cleaner and more intuitive to me.
