In my app some UTF characters like – whose value is UC2-Decimal(150),UC2-Hex(0096),UTF8-Hex(C296) which is fetched from some website, cannot be displayed properly in the browser.
It displays some unwanted characters.

I have no idea what UC2-Decimal and UC2-Hex mean, but you seem to be talking about Unicode code point 150 (decimal) or 0x96 (hex). This Unicode character exists but it isn’t what you are looking for: it’s an obscure control character in the C1 series known as “SPA”. Presumably this is the problem!
The character which you actually copied in your question is U+2013, known as “EN DASH”, a valid character. Its UTF-8 representation would be the three-byte sequence 0xe2 0x80 0x93.
