Answer 1

So you can try one solution please find the below screenshot,

As you can see in screenshot if i type M in text box then dropdown shows the record respect to letter 'M' and if you see in source the <ul> which is dynamic as you see just below <input> so you need to handle that dropdown by it's locator it is dynamic hence first you need to pass some text in text box and after that you need to select the element from the drop down using Select in selenium you use selectByVisibleText("") or what ever or you can use List<Element> you can store all the respected sources (Mumbai, Mysore ,etc)coming from dropdown and use it wisely

new WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(ExpectedConditions.elementToBeClickable(By.xpath("//input[@id='gosuggest_inputSrc']))).sendKeys("M");
List<WebElement> myList = new WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(ExpectedConditions.visibilityOfAllElementsLocatedBy(By.xpath("Xpath of the dynamic drop down")));
for (WebElement element:myList) {
         if(element.getText().contains("Mumbai"));
         element.click();
    }

i gave you an idea let me know if you need any further help

package com.software.testing;

import java.util.List;

import org.openqa.selenium.By;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebElement;
import org.openqa.selenium.chrome.ChromeDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.support.ui.ExpectedConditions;
import org.openqa.selenium.support.ui.WebDriverWait;

public class Testingclass extends DriverFactory {

    private static WebDriver driver = null;

    public static void main(String[] args) throws InterruptedException {

        System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", "your driver path");
        driver = new ChromeDriver();
        driver.get("https://www.goibibo.com/");
        new WebDriverWait(driver, 20)
                .until(ExpectedConditions.elementToBeClickable(By.xpath("//input[@id='gosuggest_inputSrc']")))
                .sendKeys("A");
        Thread.sleep(1000);
        List<WebElement> myList = new WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(ExpectedConditions.presenceOfAllElementsLocatedBy(
                By.xpath("//div[@class='dib marginL10 pad0 textOverflow width90']/div/span")));
        for (int i = 0; i < myList.size(); i++) {
            System.out.println(myList.get(i).getText());
            if (myList.get(i).getText().equals("Ahmedabad")) {
                myList.get(i).click();
                break;
            }
        }

    }
}

Don't forgot to use break after your conditional statement else it will thrown an exception.
