Hi Prashanth,
Go to Doc Lib settings > Permissions for this document library
and check is it inheriting permission from parent or not ? If its inheriting permission from parent stop inheritance and then you will get option to add a new user under NEW button.
Just add the G3 group with required permission.

Hi Prashanth,
If its inheriting permission from the parent then you will get only Actions button under Doc
Lib settings > Permissions for this document library
To stop inheritance click on the
Actions button and select Edit Permission which will copy permissions from parent and
stop inheriting it from parents later on you can edit as per your requirement which will create unique permission levels on that doc lib
