@dsingh2255 Add two zero's where the current formula refers to 100 and increase the 7^8 factor to 7^10.

 

=INDIRECT(TEXT(MIN(IF(($A$2:$M$10000<>"")*(COUNTIF($N$1:N1,$A$2:$M$10000)=0),ROW($2:$10000)*10000+COLUMN($A:$M),7^10)),"R0C0000"),)&""

 

Tested it and it works, though it slows down the calculations significantly. 

yes its too slow even its hanging the sheet...is there any other way to do that so that it can't get hang?

@dsingh2255 Use PowerQuery. See attached,

 

yes i know we can achieve the result by power query or excel 365 but thats the limitation of my software it can support upto 2016 excel version.

@dsingh2255 But PQ is integrated in Excel2016. Why not use it?
