@ Mr. Vinay

you may please try the Glossary environment provided in LaTeX.

*\makeglossary*     in the preamble and

*\glossary{glossary entry}*    in the text part

using the *glossary* package. Detailed documentation is available in the
texlive and MiKTeX distributions.

There are other dedicated packages to typeset glossaries like *gloss*, *
glossaries* etc.

Hopefully this will cater to your requirement. You may have to run latex
sufficient number of times to resolve the dependencies.

With Regards,
Sreenath M.G.
