Answer
The contact list is private.
However, if they installed WhatsApp on their smartphone, the WhatsApp server has a copy of it. Some consider that a privacy intrusion, but WhatsApp doesn't agree with that point of view, because you give them permission to do that in the small print you say "yes" to when installing the application.
But WhatsApp won't tell you. It's strictly for their own use. And it doesn't include non-smart phones and phones without WhatsApp either.

But there is no any possible way to find it out, as for example the true caller, it also have all persons contact available.?

one of your friends tells me your phone number because I want to contact you. Then I can write it down on a piece of paper and you don't know about it. And I can put it in the address book of my phone and you don't know either. In fact, nobody knows what I do, except I.
I could even store a random number in my phone, and that random number could be yours. Nonbody knows except I.
