I had a quarrel with my younger brother few days back & we are not talking to each other since then. He is having his birthday after 2 days. I want to apologize to him for my behavior & sort out all the difference on that day. Please suggest what Birthday gift should I carry for him on this occasion. What would make an ideal gift?

When buying your brother his gift, pretend your argument never happened. Birthdays are never a time to express ones apologies for a little brawl. Perhaps tell him sorry sometime before his birthday and get it over with?
If you have any inside jokes with him, you could get him a gift with one of them in mind. It would probably put a smile on his face. ;)

My suggestion is "Don't confuse the two issues."
First, you definitely need to make up for the quarrel, simply by saying "I'm sorry for what I said, did, my behavior." Tell him you love him and don't want to fight. If you both state your positions on whatever the fight was about and let it go with 'agreeing to disagree' then you both will be better off.
Second, in which direction would you go for a birthday gift? I mean, normally, without having had a fight first... Whatever his interests are, his favorite activities, what he may need for school, or whatever. Right?
So as I can't suggest a gift for your brother because I don't know him, I just want to remind you that the fight has nothing to do with his birthday and his birthday has nothing to do with the fight.
Take one thing at a time.
Good luck

Yes we definitely need to know how old your brother is to help accurately! But aren't brothers the hardest to buy for!? Every year I struggle with birthday and holiday gifts for my two brothers. Half the time my younger brother just would like money! Ha.. okay but here are some suggestions:
-A DVD set of a favorite show
-A game...especially a new one that he might be wanting
-Gift cards to his favorite store
-Does he have a girlfriend? You could get him gift cards to take her on a special date.
-Something handmade? Like a scrapbook of the two of you growing up
Hope that helps!
