How to find index of cell array

I have a cell array of
A = [2] [4] [5] [7]
[3] [10] [1] [9]
its index is given by code
[maxval idx] = max([imp{:}])
Above code is giving
maxval = 10
index = 4
whereas I want result as index = 6 (row wise calculation)
Please help

MATLAB works along columns first. This confuses some beginners.
Also note that most of your previous twenty questions would have been trivial if you stopped pointlessly storing your data in a cell array, and simply stored it in a numeric array:
M = cell2mat(A);
Better, simpler, faster, easier to understand.
It's not working. Error shown is Error in ==> cell2mat at 84 m = cat(1,m{:});
Vishal, perhaps more to the point is that you are asking many extremely basic questions, but not understanding the "big picture" of how the answers relate to each other.
You will be better off learning the fundamentals of MATLAB. There are many free resources for that. For example, you could start here.
If you do not learn the fundamentals, you will forever be reliant on this forum for every tiny question.

How about using transposition?
B=A';
[maxval idx] = max([B{:}])
You can get
maxval =
10
idx =
6
