Selecting distinct values from the above result set i.e, thereby eliminating duplicate values and finally storing these values into a variable with a comma-separated list of values. Such that variable assigned with a comma-separated list of values must be given as an input to another SQL IN Operator

We need to assign the above list of comma separated values into a variable. So that we need to eliminate duplicates from the above list of values.
