I already tried
SELECT * FROM Person where person_name='rahul' order by created_time desc OFFSET 5 ROWS FETCH NEXT 10 ROWS ONLY;
ORA-00933: SQL command not properly ended
00933. 00000 - "SQL command not properly ended"
*Cause:
*Action:
Error at Line: 1 Column: 75
Note that OFFSET is not treated as keyword.

Answer 1

Yes, that' cause Oracle don't have or support limit clause and thus you are getting ORA-00933 error. Rather, use FETCH .. OFFSET construct like
SELECT * FROM Person
where person_name='rahul'
order by created_time desc
OFFSET 0 ROWS FETCH NEXT 10 ROWS ONLY;
There are lot many similar question in StackOverflow. Should have tried searching the same. Example this one: How do I limit the number of rows returned by an Oracle query after ordering?

Answer 2

I have resolved the issue by using the below query.
SELECT * FROM Person where person_name='rahul' and rownum between 1 and 2 order by created_time desc;

If you get
ORA-00933: SQL command not properly ended
00933. 00000 - "SQL command not properly ended"

It is probably because you aren't running Oracle 12. In that case, there are some workarounds, all involving subqueries and most sloppy. I used
select * from
( select column_name, ROWNUM rnum from
( select * from table_name)
where ROWNUM <= max_row )
where rnum >= min_row order by column_name;
