Hi poonamsshr,

If you have a job offer and work permit for Oman your wife is legally entitled to join you. The visa she will be looking at getting is the Family joining and family residence visa. They cost just OMR 20 and are valid for multiple enteries. They are usually valid for two years.

Family joining and family residence visas are granted to the spouses of holders of Omani employment visas, as well as to their children (provided they are younger than 21 years of age). They cost OMR 20, are valid for two years, and allow for multiple entries.

It should be pretty easy to apply for. You will need to provide a marriage certigicate and copy of your permit. 

For everything you need to know check out the Visas for Oman page.

Good luck
