in my institute internet is provided through a proxy server, via LAN. it is required to keep a static ip address fixed for the system to use net. is there anyway i can share the net to another laptop through wifi with the ICS facility? the static ip address seems to be a problem

I guess that, instead sharing with the IP address, you could configure with your computer hostname. The proxy server, or the DNS in your institute, is in charge of translating the hostname to it's current IP address, and it should be transparent for your the other laptop user.
You can try this without configuring anything. Simply, while your computer is on the network, look at it's hostname, go to your friend's laptop and, in a command-line window, type
ping myhostname
where "myhostname" is the hostname of your own PC on the network.
