Hi Praveen,
Use this code, its working:-
*FOR SORTING DATA
DATA : it_sort TYPE slis_t_sortinfo_alv,
       wa_sort TYPE slis_sortinfo_alv.
*          SORT W.R.T. CUSTOMER NAME
  wa_sort-spos = 1.
  wa_sort-fieldname = 'NAME1'. "field customer name
  wa_sort-tabname = 'IT_KNA1'. "internal table with records
  wa_sort-up = 'X'.
  APPEND wa_sort TO it_sort.
  CLEAR wa_sort.
"this will sort the ALV o/p for customer with same name
"now the name will not be repeated
"records with same name will be grouped
*          DISPLAY RECORDS IN ALV GRID
CALL FUNCTION 'REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY'
  EXPORTING
    i_callback_program                = sy-repid "report id
    it_fieldcat                       = it_field "field catalog
    it_sort                           = it_sort "sort info
  TABLES
    t_outtab                          = it_kna1 "internal table
  EXCEPTIONS
    program_error                     = 1
    OTHERS                            = 2.
  IF sy-subrc <> 0.
  ENDIF.
Hope this solves your problem.
