Hi,

Try this.



authorityService.deleteAuthority(authorityService.getName(AuthorityType.GROUP,"Ajay_Group_NEW"));

‍‍‍‍‍

This is because, internally all group names are prefixed by GROUP_ and best way is to call getName and then delete the authority like above.
This way even if the prefix is changed your code will not break.

Best Regards,
