    Try this:

    =FILTER(AC!A5:B9,ISNUMBER(SEARCH(C1,AC!C5:C9)*(C1<>"")),"No results")

    Thankx for the prompt reply.

    Would like to add a condition further, that if C1 is blank then it should not show the result, as currently it is shown wrong result when C1 is blank.

    Maybe this:

    =IF(C1="","",FILTER(AC!A5:B9,ISNUMBER(SEARCH(C1,AC!C5:C9)*(C1<>"")),"No results"))

    Please try =FILTER(AC!A5:B9,(C1<>"")*ISNUMBER(SEARCH(C1,AC!C5:C9)),"No results").

    The test on C1 must be placed outside of ISNUMBER, otherwise you will get ISNUMBER(0) = TRUE
