Try:

String a = "100-muni-abc";
String res = a.substring(0, a.lastIndexOf("-"));

Starting from

String str = "100-muni-abc";

Removing the last char

str = str.substring(0,str.length() - 1)

Removing the last 3 chars

str = str.substring(0,str.length() - 3)

A bit late huh?

Try this

String str = "100-muni-abc";
String [] parts = str.split("-");
System.out.println(parts[0]+"-"+parts[1]);
