Hello Arun,

I assume the local machine which you are referring to is having Splunk Enterprise installed in it and the remote machine which you are referring to is having Splunk Universal forwarder installed in it. And the connection of Splunk UF is properly made to local machine in which Splunk ES is installed.
In this case you can keep the script in $SPLUNK_HOME/ets/apps/,app_name/bin/

Then go to Settings --> Data Inputs --> Scripts (Add New), then follow the steps which will be prompted/asked to you.
In this way you will be able to fetch the data using scripted input from any machine in which UF is installed.

Hope this helps. Please let me know for any further clarifications.
