In this work, we study the charged current induced neutrino and antineutrino scattering from the free nucleon target. This study has been performed in the energy range of a few GeV, relevant for the (anti)neutrino oscillation experiments with accelerator and atmospheric neutrinos. For a few GeV neutrino, the contribution to the cross section mainly comes from the quasielastic, the inelastic production of mesons like pion, kaon, eta, and hyperons as well as from the deep inelastic scattering by the weak currents in 
=0 and =1 sectors. The numerical results are presented for the 
distribution of the differential cross section for all the aforementioned processes. The effect of the cut on the center of mass energy W has been explicitly discussed.
