You can see, I want to divide this into 2 groups based on _FOLDER_1 & _FOLDER_2. When I iterate using below xsl code I get all the results and those are not differentiated based on _FOLDER_1 & _FOLDER_2.
xsl:
<xsl:template match="/">
<Folder>
<xsl:for-each select="FOLDER-HIERARCHY/CHILDREN/FOLDER-HIERARCHY/CHILDREN/FOLDER-HIERARCHY/CHILDREN/OBJECT/SPEC-OBJECT-REF">
<xsl:variable name="specObjectRef" select="."/>
<ul><xsl:value-of select="$specObjectRef"/></ul>
</xsl:for-each>
</Folder>
</xsl:template>
I can get the desired result if I loop over using 2 for loops outer loop for FOLDER & inner for subelements. But for some reasons I cannot use that approach as I need this data in another outer loop. Please help. Thanks in advance.

You just need to split your xsl:for-each into two and nest them. The outer one will select the main FOLDER-HIERARCHY , and you then create a Folder for each. Then, within that, you can then select the SPEC-OBJECT-REF
Try this template:
<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:for-each select="FOLDER-HIERARCHY/CHILDREN/FOLDER-HIERARCHY/CHILDREN/FOLDER-HIERARCHY">
<Folder>
<xsl:for-each select="CHILDREN/OBJECT/SPEC-OBJECT-REF">
<ul><xsl:value-of select="."/></ul>
</xsl:for-each>
</Folder>
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>
