Hiya,
To start with, use AT+CMEE=1 to enable numeric error codes, then look up the returned error code in the WIP guide. This will start to point to where your error is.
ciao, Dave

You just said it yourself - it means, “Bad State” ❗
ie, the module is not in the correct state that is required for this command to work!

The issue was with Server ,
I tried opening a different port and was able to Send data,
Thanks
