Heat flows from hot body to cold body then why you call heat as scalar?

A scalar quantity has no direction, you cannot talk of north heat, or left heat, or upward heat - they are meaningless. The fact that heat travels in one general direction does not imply a single definite direction - think of a crowd moving along a street - although the crowd may be moving in one direction, the individuals could be moving in any direction within the crowd.
