Hi @Subrahmanyam Gurivisetti,

Thank you for posting in this community.

In order to better understand and address your question, I would like to confirm a few questions with you:

1.What version of SharePoint are you using?

2.You mentioned that you want to create a group without SharePoint, are you looking to create a group but not associated with a SharePoint Site?

3.You mentioned that you want to create a SharePoint without any group. Are you trying to create a SharePoint site but don't have any groups?

But by default, SharePoint site has three default groups which are [site name] Owners group, [site name] Members group and [site name] Visitors group. When you create a site, you have to fill in the owner of the site and this user will be added to [site name] Owners group. If you don't add any other member for the site, then there is no member in the [site name] Members group and [site name] Visitors group.

If you want to delete default groups, please go to Site Settings->People and groups -> Delete groups you don't need. But please give full control permissions to your site owner individually before deleting the Owner group, otherwise no one will be able to access the site you created.

Your time and patience is much appreciated. If there is any other assistance I can provide, please feel free to let me know.
