We are using bulk collect to enhance the performance as the data is huge.
But as you said it is ideally insert into b select * from a;
So now I am using the looping through query result option as Adrian suggested.

Thank You Adrian.

That seems pretty over complicated version of:
insert into b select * from a;
Which is all you'll need in PG. It it does something else, then I failed to understand the stored proc.
