From fig 6.1 on the datasheet, the quiescent current consumed by the IC for the aforementioned conditions is approximately 90 μA
Hi Ishaan,
Sorry for the late reply.
I need to know how much current is used to convert 12V to 5V.
In general Pin = Pout under ideal with no loss.
Vin x Iin = Vout x Iout
Iin ~= 145mA

Hi Gokul,
For LDOs, Pin = Pout is never true. The maximum achievable efficiency (which itself is theoretical and never practical) equals the conversion ratio (Vout/Vin) which in this case is 41.6%. The input current equals the output current plus the quiescent current (which is the current consumed by the control circuitry when the device is ON). The values you specified for Iin and Iout are not concurrent per the above. I suggest checking specifications for output current and estimating the input current using 'Iin = Iout + 90μA'.
