I have a table of contents starting on page 3.

I use \tableofcontents to generate it.

My actual generated pdfs contents page looks like this

contents..............3
chapter1...........6
chapter2.............19

How to ignore this contents.........3 line?

I am not using the class memoir, I m using report so the duplicate doesnt work for me.

Answer : As pointed out by @egreg.

Use \usepackage[nottoc]{tocbibind} instead of \usepackage{tocbibind}

The standard classes use the starred form of the sectioning command for the table of contents. This form does not add an entry in the table of contents. A MWE shows the class, packages and options that might be responsible for the observed behavior. – Heiko Oberdiek Mar 21 '13 at 12:36

@HeikoOberdiek As far as I know, only memoir has the star form of \tableofcontents. With the standard classes the problem might be caused by having \usepackage{tocbibind} instead of \usepackage[nottoc]{tocbibind}. – egreg Mar 21 '13 at 13:04
thanks @egreg \usepackage[nottoc]{tocbibind} solved the problem – epsilon8 Mar 21 '13 at 13:11
