Hi guys, i worked out a solution for my problem its not perfect but its ok for now, i am posting my script so you can test and add any suggestions to make it better.

    using UnityEngine;
    using System.Collections;
    
    public class DynamicGUI : MonoBehaviour {
    
    
    	public float dynamicHeight;
    	public GUIStyle mystyle;
    	public string content;
    	public string dymmyText;
    
    	private float wide;
    	private float tall;
    
    	private string mycontent = "The best place to ask and answer questions about development with Unity. To help users post good questions and use the site effectively we have posted a user guide.";
    
    	// Use this for initialization
    	void Start () {
    		wide = Screen.width;
    		tall = Screen.height;
    	}
    
    	void OnGUI() {
    		GUI.Box(new Rect(5,0,Screen.width-10,dynamicHeight),content,mystyle);
    
    		if(GUI.Button(new Rect(0,Screen.height-50,Screen.width,50),"Click")) {
    			content = GetString(mycontent);
    		}
    	}
    
    	public string GetString( string value ) {
    
    		string finalString = "";
    
    		int n = -1;
    
    		for(int i = 0; i < value.Length; i++){
    			n++;
// n is the character count, at res 320*480 its 33 char in a single line (wide*.103125f = 33)
    			if(n >= (wide*.103125f) ){
    				finalString+=value*+"

";*
_ dynamicHeight+=wide*.084375f;_

  •  		n = -1;*

  •  		print("newline");*

_ }else if(value == ’ '){_
* print (“space”);*
* finalString+=" ";*
* }else{*
_ finalString+=value*;
 }
 }*_

* return finalString;*
* }*
}
This is how it looks on single click

This is how it looks when i incremented the text content by double clicking the button.

What i did is, in a fixed resolution 320*480, i am checking the maximum number of character can fit in a single line, if that number is achieved than i am incrementing the dynamicHeight variable, which is my height for the GUI Box, with that i am also adding a new line to my final text.
I know this is not perfect but if you guys have any solution please do let me know.
