8      1.40      94
9      2.30      94

I have to fetch the data using group by code and i want the middle row as output.

SELECT table1.* 
FROM table1
JOIN (
    SELECT SUBSTRING_INDEX(SUBSTRING_INDEX( GROUP_CONCAT(id ORDER BY id ASC), ',', CEIL(COUNT(*) / 2) ), ',', -1) AS id
    FROM table1
    GROUP BY CODE
) t USING(id)
