Below I have mentioned one way of parsing that XML. I have used XmlPullParser to parse the above mentioned xml:

     String str1 ="<Xml to be parsed>";
    XmlPullParserFactory factory = XmlPullParserFactory.newInstance();
            factory.setNamespaceAware(true);
            XmlPullParser xpp = factory.newPullParser();
            xpp.setInput( new StringReader (str1));
            int eventType = xpp.getEventType();
            while (eventType != XmlPullParser.END_DOCUMENT) {
                String str;
             if(eventType == XmlPullParser.START_DOCUMENT) {
                System.out.println("Start document");
             } else if(eventType == XmlPullParser.START_TAG) {
                 str    =   xpp.getName();
                 System.out.println("Start tag "+str);

             } else if(eventType == XmlPullParser.END_TAG) {
                 System.out.println("End tag "+xpp.getName());
             } else if(eventType == XmlPullParser.TEXT) {
                 System.out.println("Text "+xpp.getText());
             }
             eventType = xpp.next();
            }
           System.out.println("End document");
