so far i have prepared a macro which is moving row by row but that only matches company names with previous row

Set SHGROUP = ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Data_DQ")


Range("F2").Select
ActiveCell.Interior.Color = vbYellow


For U = 2 To LastRow1


Set MYNAME2 = Cells(U, "f")
Set MYNAME3 = Cells((U + 1), ("f"))


If MYNAME2.Value = MYNAME3 Then


SHGROUP.Cells(U, "f").Interior.Color = vbGreen
SHGROUP.Cells(U + 1, "f").Interior.Color = vbGreen
Else


SHGROUP.Cells(U + 1, "f").Interior.Color = vbYellow


End If
Next U

Hi

Please try with below macro

Code: 
Sub ColourMatch()

Dim SHGROUP  As Worksheet
Dim Temp As String
Dim I As String
Dim Lrow As String
Set SHGROUP = ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Sheet2")
Range("A1").Select 'Change Cell value
I = "A$1:" 'mention first cellvalue range

Do While ActiveCell.Value <> ""

Temp = WorksheetFunction.CountIf(Range(I & ActiveCell.Address), Range(ActiveCell.Address))

If Temp > 1 Then

ActiveCell.Interior.Color = vbGreen

Else

ActiveCell.Interior.Color = vbYellow

End If

ActiveCell.Offset(1, 0).Select
Loop

End Sub

Thanks but it is not working. it is just doing color coding yellow & then green color on IDs. what i need first it has to check that how many times that id exists then based on id count it has to match name rows with similar nunber of times.
e.g. US127473334L id exits 3 times in columns A so then it sud go to column B and match 1st row company name with next two rows/ hope it makes sense.

How about
Code: 
Sub HiliteCells()
   Dim cl As Range
   Dim Dic As Object
   
   Set Dic = CreateObject("scripting.dictionary")
   Dic.comparemode = vbTextCompare
   For Each cl In Range("A2", Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp))
      If Not Dic.exists(cl.Value) Then
         Dic.Add cl.Value, CreateObject("scripting.dictionary")
         Dic(cl.Value).Add cl.Offset(, 1).Value, cl.Offset(, 1)
         cl.Offset(, 1).Interior.Color = vbYellow
      ElseIf Not Dic(cl.Value).exists(cl.Offset(, 1).Value) Then
         Dic(cl.Value).Add cl.Offset(, 1).Value, cl.Offset(, 1)
         cl.Offset(, 1).Interior.Color = vbYellow
      Else
         cl.Offset(, 1).Interior.Color = vbGreen
         Dic(cl.Value)(cl.Offset(, 1).Value).Interior.Color = vbGreen
      End If
   Next cl
End Sub

To do that properly would require Fuzzy Logic, which is beyond my abilities.
However this will consider a match if the 1st 15 characters are the same.
Code: 
Sub HiliteCells()
   Dim Cl As Range
   Dim Dic As Object
   Dim V2 As String
   
   Set Dic = CreateObject("scripting.dictionary")
   Dic.comparemode = vbTextCompare
   For Each Cl In Range("A1", Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp))
      V2 = Left(Cl.Offset(, 1).Value, [COLOR=#ff0000]15[/COLOR])
      If Not Dic.exists(Cl.Value) Then
         Dic.Add Cl.Value, CreateObject("scripting.dictionary")
         Dic(Cl.Value).comparemode = vbTextCompare
         Dic(Cl.Value).Add V2, Cl.Offset(, 1)
         Debug.Print Dic(Cl.Value)(Left(Cl.Offset(, 1).Value, Len(Cl.Offset(, 1).Value) - 0.2 * Len(Cl.Offset(, 1).Value)))
         Cl.Offset(, 1).Interior.Color = vbYellow
      ElseIf Not Dic(Cl.Value).exists(V2) Then
         Dic(Cl.Value).Add V2, Cl.Offset(, 1)
         Cl.Offset(, 1).Interior.Color = vbYellow
      Else
         Cl.Offset(, 1).Interior.Color = vbGreen
         Dic(Cl.Value)(V2).Interior.Color = vbGreen
      End If
   Next Cl
End Sub
Change the value in red for how many characters you want to consider
