Hi Mukesh,
The APD receiver needs lots of effects effect to be considered such as temperature, the incident intensity of light, because of avalanche multiplication i.e. carrier generation. whereas in the case of PIN the switching speed can be enhanced by a small minority carrier lifetime. so without seeing at the parameters that you have considered for the APD the exact reason can not be determined.
