  Is there a tui command to add a particular material in fluent from the GRANTA MDS database?

  Direct from MDS, probably not. If you have the licences for the Fluent Granta MDS database it should be possible to switch database and then copy a specific material over.

  If you can copy from the GUI it should be available in the TUI, unless you're using an older version and it's a recent addition to the TUI. Are you using the same version, computer and session for both TUI and GUI checks?

  It's there in 23R1, and not on 21R1 here either. I think that was the first release so quite possible the TUI menu wasn't added immediately.
