I am using the following code to show data into tableview: DataArray contains values inside "sponsors" key

- (NSInteger)numberOfSectionsInTableView:(UITableView *)tableView
{
    return [DataArray count];
}


-(NSString *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView titleForHeaderInSection:(NSInteger)section
{
    return [DataArray objectAtIndex:section];
}



-(NSInteger)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView numberOfRowsInSection:(NSInteger)section
{
    return [[DataArray objectAtIndex:section] count];
}


-(UITableViewCell*)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
    static NSString *simpleTableIdentifier = @"SimpleTableItem";
    UITableViewCell *cell = [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:simpleTableIdentifier];
    if (cell == nil)
    {
        cell = [[UITableViewCell alloc] initWithStyle:UITableViewCellStyleDefault reuseIdentifier:simpleTableIdentifier];
    }
    cell.textLabel.font=[UIFont fontWithName: @"Arial" size: 14.0 ];

    cell.textLabel.lineBreakMode = NSLineBreakByWordWrapping;

    //to hide extra cell from table
    sponsorTable.tableFooterView = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectZero];

    /*UIView * bkView = (UIView*)[cell viewWithTag:150];
    if(indexPath.row % 2 == 0)
    {
        bkView.backgroundColor = [UIColor whiteColor];
        //cell.backgroundColor = [UIColor whiteColor];
    }
    else
    {
        bkView.backgroundColor = [UIColor colorWithRed:234/255.0 green:236/255.0 blue:235/255.0 alpha:1];
    }*/



    NSString* name = [[DataArray objectAtIndex:indexPath.row]valueForKey:@"sp_name"];
    NSLog(@"-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=%@",name);
    UILabel * nameLbl = (UILabel *)[cell viewWithTag:102];
    nameLbl.text = name;



    NSString * urlstring = [[DataArray objectAtIndex:indexPath.row]valueForKey:@"sp_logo"];
    NSLog(@"urlStr is %@",urlstring);
    NSString * completeString = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"http:****************",urlstring];
    NSLog(@"Complete Url string is %@",completeString);
    UIImageView * imgVw = (UIImageView *)[cell viewWithTag:101];

    cell.imageView.layer.cornerRadius = cell.imageView.frame.size.width / 2;
    cell.imageView.clipsToBounds = YES;

    NSString *imageUrl = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@",completeString];
    dispatch_queue_t imageDownloadQueue = dispatch_queue_create(DISPATCH_QUEUE_PRIORITY_DEFAULT, nil);

    dispatch_async(imageDownloadQueue, ^{
        NSData *imageData = [NSData dataWithContentsOfURL:[NSURL URLWithString:imageUrl]];

        dispatch_async(dispatch_get_main_queue(), ^{
            UIImage * image1 = [UIImage imageWithData:imageData];
            imgVw.image = image1;
        });
    });


    return cell;
}

What you have here is (converted with NSJSONSerialization) is sponsors being a dictionary where each of dictionaries contains an array.

- (NSInteger)numberOfSectionsInTableView:(UITableView *)tableView
{
    NSDictionary *sponsers = parsedResponse[@"sponsers"];
    return sponsers.allKeys.count; // For every key we need a section
}

- (NSString *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView titleForHeaderInSection:(NSInteger)section
{
    NSDictionary *sponsers = parsedResponse[@"sponsers"];
    NSString *key = sponsers.allKeys[section];
    return key; // The key is the section name

}

- (NSInteger)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView numberOfRowsInSection:(NSInteger)section
{
    NSDictionary *sponsers = parsedResponse[@"sponsers"];
    NSString *key = sponsers.allKeys[section];
    NSArray *content = sponsers[key]; // Each item should be an array
    return content.count; // Return number of items in embedded array
}

- (UITableViewCell*)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
    NSDictionary *sponsers = parsedResponse[@"sponsers"];
    NSString *key = sponsers.allKeys[indexPath.section];
    NSArray *content = sponsers[key];
    NSDictionary *item = content[indexPath.row];
    // We have the item. Populate the cell
    ... generate cell ...
    cell.textLabel.text = item[@"sp_name"];
    ...
}

This should be all the info you need to construct your table view. If you have issues with populating cell data I suggest you ask another, specific question about it.

you have to set specific key and that key you have to store "section value".So you can easily get value of section. your dictionary set as shown below.

"data" : [
    {
      “Section Title“ : “Section1”,
      “InnerCellData” : [
        {
        //record 1
        }
       {
        //record 2
        }
      ]
    }
    {
      “Section Title“ : “Section2”,
      “InnerCellData” : [
        {
        //record 1
        }
       {
        //record 2
        }
      ]
    }

  ]

Its works for you.
