ERROR:
ORA-12203: TNS:unable to connect to destination
This Error may be occur, your db server not reachable for client machine Either Ipaddress wrong or ping or Firewall Blocked.
Firewall : This is the case for me. So I looked my firewall settings of my local PC, The Firewall is OFF. But the Domain network firewall is ON.

Go –> Control Panel –> Adminisrative Tools –> Windows Firewal with Advanced Security
It shows like
So I need to change or allow Inbound connections for Domain network.
Click –> Windows Firewall Properties.

Choose Inbound connections –> Allow and then Apply.Now I just try to connect my db from client, Its works fine.
