Hi Nihar,

Greetings to you!

Please try the below code, I have tested in my org and it is working fine. Kindly modify the code as per your requirement.

Visualforce: 
<apex:page controller="ObjInPicklistC">
    <apex:form >
        <apex:pageBlock > 
            <apex:pagemessages />
            <apex:pageBlockSection >
                <apex:outputLabel value="Object Names :"/>
                <apex:selectList value="{!selectedObject}" size="1">
                    <apex:selectOption itemLabel="--None--" itemValue="--None--"/>
                    <apex:selectOptions value="{!objectNames}"/>
                    <apex:actionSupport event="onchange" action="{!fetchFields}" rerender="flds"/>
                </apex:selectList>
            </apex:pageBlockSection>
        </apex:pageBlock>
        <apex:pageblock id="flds" title="Last 50 Records">
            <apex:pagemessages />
            <apex:pageblockTable value="{!objFields}" var="fd">
                <apex:repeat value="{!result}" var="res">
                    <apex:column value="{!fd[res]}" />
                </apex:repeat>
            </apex:pageblockTable>
        </apex:pageblock>    
    </apex:form>
</apex:page>

Controller: 
public class ObjInPicklistC {
    
    public String selectedObject {get;set;}
    public List<sObject> objFields {get;set;} 
    public List<String> result {get;set;}
    
    public ObjInPicklistC(){ 
        selectedObject = 'none';
    }
    
    public List<SelectOption> getobjectNames(){  
        List<SelectOption> options = new List<SelectOption>();
        options.add(new SelectOption('Lead','Lead'));
        options.add(new SelectOption('Contact','Contact'));
        return options;
    }
    
    public void fetchFields(){ 
        result = new List<String>();
        Map<String , Schema.SObjectType> globalDescription = Schema.getGlobalDescribe();
        Schema.sObjectType objType = globalDescription.get(selectedObject);   
        Schema.DescribeSObjectResult r1 = objType.getDescribe(); 
        
        Map<String , Schema.SObjectField> mapFieldList = r1.fields.getMap();  
        
        for(Schema.SObjectField field : mapFieldList.values()){  
            Schema.DescribeFieldResult fieldResult = field.getDescribe();  
            
            if(fieldResult.isAccessible()){  
                result.add(fieldResult.getName());
            }  
        }
        Integer i = 0;
        String fieldsToFetch = '';
        for(String temp:result){       
            Integer len = result.size();
            if(i==len-1){
                fieldsToFetch = fieldsToFetch + temp;
            }
            else{
                fieldsToFetch = fieldsToFetch + temp + ',';
            }
            i++;
        }
        try{
            String sql = ' SELECT ' + fieldsToFetch + ' FROM ' + selectedObject + ' ORDER BY CreatedDate DESC LIMIT 50';
            objFields = Database.Query(sql);
        }
        catch(Exception e){
            ApexPages.addMessages(e);
        }
    }   
}

I hope it helps you.

Hi Nihar,

You can try the below code -

Change the object as per your need to Lead and Contact.
  
<apex:page controller="accountfiltercon ">
    <apex:form >
    <apex:selectList size="1" value="{!selectedname}"> 
        <apex:selectOptions value="{!selectedaccnamefields}"/>  
    </apex:selectList>
    </apex:form>
</apex:page>

public class accountfiltercon {
    Public string selectedname{get;set;}
        Public List<Selectoption> getselectedaccnamefields(){
            List<Selectoption> lstnamesel = new List<selectoption>();
            lstnamesel.add(new selectOption('', '- None -'));
            for(Account acc :[SELECT id,name,phone,type,industry FROM Account]){
            lstnamesel.add(new selectoption(acc.id,acc.name));
            }
            return lstnamesel; 
        }
}
