I have been struggling with how to find the row number and column number for particular points in any raster map.

My raster details:

columns and rows:  720 360 
cell size (0.5, 0.5)

How can I know the row number and column number by pointing the cursor at any location in the map?

It looks like you could add the information to the attribute table:

HowTo: Locate the column and row of a point within a raster

using the field calculator or Spatial Analyst

You need to specify which tool you are using. There are a lot which can provide you such kind of information and more reg raster maps. QGIS is pretty good GUI and

there is also another tools such as GRASS GIS,iview(OSSIM) etc which provides you the information.
