Solution 1

Use Select distinct replace(name, ' ','') from ...

If you add the id you will get all distinct ID's and name, but it is unclear what you are trying to do with the ID field

i want to delete those duplicate records from table but with one condition that id >200

I'm a bit unsure of what you are trying to do. But You can get the duplicates to delete from delete from tablename where ID in (select ID from ...table name... Where ID > 200 group by replace(name,' ','') having count (replace( name ' ','')) > 1). You need to include all the information etc of what you are attempting to do.
