Hello everyone,
I need to block the DC or keep the DC at a constant level in the output of the op amp and amplify the AC using the same op amp.
Currently the DC shift in the input is between 1.6V to 2V
i don't need any gain for the DC and the gain required for AC is 10 and above.
When i try to block the DC using the capacitor there is so much of noise in the output.
I am uploading some of my test circuit and its results.
please help me to solve this out.

You didn't complete your description...

To block DC, you can AC couple the signal. If you want a fixed or variable DC offset in the output, you can use a summing amplifier to add an offset.

Thank you for your update.

Actually the signal is an output of hall effect sensor,the problem is the DC offset is varying with some sensors.So in this case will the summing amplifier work.

Wild guess - use a coupling capacitor?

C1 is in parallel with R4, that's not an AC coupling cap.

EDIT: I get it. You're not telling me where the cap is, you're telling the OP where to put it.
Currently in board there is no amplifier b/w sensor and ADC,so because of the DC shift in the o/p of the sensor is different from one another the data what we got from the ADC are not proper.
so i am thinking of blocking the dc and amplify the AC .
please let me know if there is any circuit that will meet my requirement
please find the datasheet of the sensor

Can you post your .asc file?

Try this mod of your asc file.
Note that your circuit currently has a gain of ~100, so the amp is driven into saturation. Is that your intention?
Thanks a lot for you update ,
let me rig this circuit and let you know how it is working.
