var fieldsArray = subjectString.split("${");
for(var i=1; i != fieldsArray.length; i++){
var field = fieldsArray[i].split("}");
field = field[0];
var fieldValue = getIncidentFieldValue(field);
subjectString = subjectString.replace("${"+field+"}", fieldValue);
}
gs.info(subjectString)
function getIncidentFieldValue(field){
var grInc = new GlideRecord("incident");
if(grInc.get("number", "INC0000060")){
return grInc.getDisplayValue(field);
}
}

Less than symbol is not allowed in the description, hence added != in the for loop in above code.
