Just create new instance of schedule__c with id as - schedule__c scRec = new schedule__c(id = sc.id);

add it to list -> lstSh.add(scRec);

and delete this list -> delete lstSh;

Do this in after trigger.

HI Sairam,

If you use After Trigger, then the record which initiated the trigger will be read only until the completion of the Trigger transaction. So you won't be able to perform any DML on that particular record.

If this trigger is running on only Update event then i would suggest you to use Before Trigger instead of After Trigger event. And then try the same code you are using. 

Please let me know if it works or you need any more assistance.

Mark this as the solution if it solves your purpose.
