How to retrieve Quantity attribute for WTPart Structure?

I am trying to retrieve Quantity attribute for BOM Structure.

WTPartUsageLink puLink = WTPartUsageLink.newWTPartUsageLink(part, partMaster);

puLink.getQuantity().getAmount(); //gives quantity 1.0 always.

The code you are using isn't actually looking at persisted data. You're essentially creating a "new"  local WTPartUsageLink and I'm guessing 1.0 is the default value. If you would like to actually retreive the quantity from an existing link in the database, you need to get a reference to that link.

One of the APIs you could use would be:

WTPartHelper.service.getUsesWTParts(parents, configSpec);

JavaDoc:
getUsesWTParts

Persistable[][][] getUsesWTParts(WTList parts, ConfigSpec configSpec) throws WTException

Navigates from many used-by parts to their uses
part masters and applies a ConfigSpec to select the iterations
of the uses parts. Returns a three dimensional array of Persistable
where the first dimension is corresponds the the used-by parts passed
in. The second dimension corresponds to the part usage links from
the used-by part. The third dimension is two elements long where [0]
is the WTPartUsageLink and [2] is the uses WTPart or WTPartMaster
if the config spec did not select an iteration of the uses part. This
API does not support filtering. 

Supported API: true


Parameters:
parts - Ordered list of used-by parts.
configSpec - The config spec to use to select the uses part iterations.
Returns:
Persistable[][][]
Throws:
WTException

Once you have the link you can use your code above to get the quanity:

puLink.getQuantity().getAmount();
