Hi Everyone,
i have found the solution i thought i should also share here for other people help so that if someone have same problem then they can have been helped through this reply.

Actually Remove duplicate option does not working normally when there are numbers as value in main column through which we are removing duplicate.
if we have to remove column G Dupicates with the other columns in sheets we have to go to data, click on remove duplicate options, then click on expand selection option, then unselect all in the option in popup box, then down in the same popup box there only check on the one column in which there are values (in numbers) in this case is column G and then click on OK. and that is all duplicates numbers will be removed. for further help two more snapshots are attached in this reply.
