If u want count manually, then this is one solution ...

1) take $count=0;
2) Increment $count at the end of the while loop.
3) Print $count;

Code:

$count=0;
while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) {
    $rec = $row['receiver'];
    $dept_rc=split(",",$rec);
    $d1 = '4';
    if(in_array($d1,$dept_rc) == TRUE){ //dp2
          $dc1="1"; } else $dc1="0";
          for($x=0; $x <= count($dc1['$x']); $x++)  {
                      }
    ?>
    <tr>
      <td><?php echo $row['dept_name']; ?></td>
      <td><?php echo $dc1; ?></td>
      <td> </td>
    </tr>
     <?php $count++; } ?>
    <tr>
      <td>Total</td>
      <td><?php echo $count; ?></td> 
      <td> </td>
    </tr>

You could also use $count = mysql_num_rows($result); after line 14, but before the start of the while loop.
