Jump to PostStart by defining a Student class that has instance variables for name. marks etc.
Input the raw data, create the instances of Student and add them to a List like JeffGrigg said.
Are you asking how to sort by name?
So you want to read that data into memory -- into something like a List or array. And then you want to sort it -- based on "Marks" and "Percentage" it seems. (Presumably, the input would not already be in sorted order.)
Now, depending on how you do the sort, the "top 10" could be the first or last 10. If you're "smart" about it, the "top 10" would be the first ten. So you just "display" (print) the first ten.

Java has methods to sort a List:
http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/util/Collections.html#sort%28java.util.List,%20java.util.Comparator%29
you need to create one or more Comparators ( http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/util/Comparator.html ) that define the order in which you want things sorted.
