I have tried to select option based on the textbox text.

Below is my html

<select id="select1">
    <option value="">-- Please Select --</option>
    <option value="277">12 +$2.99</option>
    <option value="278">25 +$2.75</option>
    <option value="279">50 +$2.50</option>
    <option value="280">100 +$2.00</option>
    <option value="281">250 +$1.90</option>
    <option value="282">500 +$1.70</option>
    <option value="283">1000 +$1.60</option>
    <option value="284">2500 +$1.50</option>
    <option value="285">5000 +$1.20</option>
    <option value="286">10000 +$1.00</option>
    <option value="287">25000 +$0.80</option>
</select>
<input type="text" id="pqr" />

And my js like bellow

 $(function(){
    $('#pqr').change(function(){
        $txt = $( "#select1 option:contains('"+$(this).val()+"')" ).text();
            $arr = $txt.split(" +");
            $( "#select1").val($txt);
            alert($arr[0])
            $( "#select1" ).filter(function() {
                 alert($( this ).text > $arr[0]);
            })
    });
});

so if user enter text 12 or greater than 12 and bellow 25 than i want to select option second 12 +$2.99 and if user enter 1500 than option 1000 +$1.60 get selected. Basically i have try to pare option text before (+) sign and try to select based on that.

Please give me hint or any good help so solve this problem

At every change, iterate over all option elements and pare based on parseInt():

jQuery(function($) {
    $('#pqr').on('change', function() {
        var value = parseInt(this.value, 10),
        dd = document.getElementById('select1'),
        index = 0;

        $.each(dd.options, function(i) {
            if (parseInt(this.text, 10) <= value) {
                index = i;
            }
        });

        dd.selectedIndex = index; // set selected option
    });
});

Demo

Loop through each option to pare the value. You can use something like this,

$(function () {
    $('#pqr').change(function () {
        var txtvalue = parseFloat($(this).val());
        $("#select1 option").each(function () {
            var splitText = $(this).next().text().split("+");
            if (splitText.length > 1) {
                if (txtvalue < parseFloat(splitText[0].trim())) {
                    $(this).prop("selected", true);
                    return false;
                }
            }
        });
    });
});

Fiddle

Try this :

$(function(){
    $('#pqr').change(function(){
       var inputVal = parseInt($(this).val());
        $('#select1 option').each(function(){
           var firstVal = $(this).text().split('+')[0];
           var nextVal = inputVal;
           if(!$(this).is(':last'))
            $(this).next().text().split('+')[0];

            if(parseInt(firstVal) <= inputVal && parseInt(nextVal) >=inputVal)
            {
                $(this).prop('selected',true);
            }
        });
    });
});

Demo

The $arr[0] in the change callback function will be containing a text value which is not yet parsed to integer so the statement alert($( this ).text > $arr[0]); would not give desired output. For checking the value lying between a range of select lists option you can use data attributes as followed:

<select id="select1">
    <option value="" data-min="-" data-max="-"> Please Select </option>
    <option value="277" data-min="12" data-max="25">12 +$2.99</option>
    <option value="278" data-min="25" data-max="50">25 +$2.75</option>

This way you will not have to Parse the text of option into integer. These data values can be retrieved for using jquery data function http://api.jquery./data/.

Also all the times you will not be getting the $('#pqr').val() as the text in the option's text so you will have to collect the value of text box and pare it with the range of each option(value >= data-max || value <= data-min).

$(function(){
  $('#pqr').on("input", function(){
    var text = this.value;      
    var options = $("#select1 > option");
        var elementToSelect = options.eq(0);
    if (text.match(/[0-9]+/)) {
      elementToSelect = options.filter(function(){
        return Number(this.innerText.split("+")[0]) <= text;
      })
      .eq(-1);
    }
    elementToSelect.attr("selected",true);
  });   
});
