Hi,
It may be other behaviours are running prior to yours.

Try putting the following before invoking your methods in the java class.
behaviourFilter.disableBehaviour();
checkFolderValidity(parentRef)
behaviourFilter.enableBehaviour();

Hi Hiten,

For your 'BeforeCreateNodePolicy', I am not sure what customization you have done but I believe when you click 'Create… menu option' at that time its NOT calling alfresco data script and so node is NOT created and so your registered policy behavior is NOT being executed. When you actually fill up form and hit create button at that time only actual Node is created and so your registered behavior is being executed.

For your query - "EDIT-1: Please let me know if anyone has any ideas on this ?? Specifically why the BeforeSetNodeTypePolicy is not working on the Folder."
you need to use - OnSetNodeTypePolicy. Check this - https://issues.alfresco.com/jira/browse/MNT-2212
I am not sure for alfresco 5.0 but I believe there is not any change in API so should be working in your case.

Hope this helps!
