Sorry but this is not a bug.

The base64_encoded version of 'masud' will have a single equals sign at the end for padding.

When you urlencode this it will be converted to '%3D',

bWFzdWQ= -> bWFzdWQ%3D

You have changed the encoding, and have changed the value represented by this encoding.

base64_decode is behaving correctly in this case.

Thank you for your interest in PHP.

Could you clear this ? 

I need to remove(=) equal sign from the input url. How can I make this ?

This is a bug report system, not a support forum. There are various methods for obtaining support documented at: http://php.net/support.php - but you'll probably get results faster by using a search engine.
