    My link linked to the documentation of the module. The module comes already distributed with Perl. Why did you try to install it?

      As you suggested I changed my ls with File::Glob. Now help me in how to read .gz files??? 

       
#!/usr/bin/perl

use warnings;
use strict;
use File::Glob ':bsd_glob';

use Archive::Tar;
use Data::Dumper;

my $cdr_dir="/root/prac/NSN_SGSN";


my @list = bsd_glob('*.gz');
print Dumper \@list;

foreach my $file (@list)
{
      #open gz file, read line by line
}

        You already have been introduced to the concept of reading from pipes. Maybe try

        my $cmd = sprintf 'gzip -cd "%s"', $file;
open my $fh, $cmd
    or die "Couldn't read [$cmd]: $!";
