Your counter indicator will not update until the loop has finished executing and then it will display either 0 (counting down) or 255 counting up.  If you want to see the indicator labled 'counter' counting up (or down) then the indicator (or a local variable attached to the indicator) MUST be inside the loop.

Even I put the indicator inside the SCTL the counter value still not counting 1 by 1.

Try this code

Or this which is close to your original (I think the solution from PalanivelT is better though)

Your inner loop has a fixed number of iterations, known before the loop starts, thus it needs to be a FOR loop.

Since the two cases are nearly identical, you don't need a case structure.

Here's one possibility:

Feel free to adjust the time delay (currently 200ms).

This is much less cluttered that some of the other suggestions with lots of duplicate code and even local variables. 😉
