although LiCl has higher lattice energy than NaCl but still LiCl HAS LOWER MELTNG PT NaCl

Right answer by Pranjal. Here I would like to add one more point. As size of Li+ ion is very small as compared to Na+ ion it does not fits as well as Na+ in the Cl- latice. This also gives it lower melting point.
