doubt in grep command

Hello

i am new shell scripting.

I have a file like this,

$ cat myfile

[%XYZ12345%];/abc/abc.cpp@@/main/1;xyz
[%XYZ12345%];/abc/abc.cpp@@/main/2;usr2
[%XYZ2345%];/abc/abc.cpp@@/main/1;abc
[%XYZ98989%];/abc/abc.cpp@@/main/2;usr2
[%abc%];/abc/abc.cpp@@/main/1;usr1

when i grep the file.

$ grep "abc" myfile
[%XYZ12345%];/abc/abc.cpp@@/main/1;xyz
[%XYZ12345%];/abc/abc.cpp@@/main/2;usr2
[%XYZ2345%];/abc/abc.cpp@@/main/1;abc
[%XYZ98989%];/abc/abc.cpp@@/main/2;usr2
[%abc%];/abc/abc.cpp@@/main/1;usr1

but i want to grep the lines which are having [%abc%] string.

so my expected result is

[%abc%];/abc/abc.cpp@@/main/1;usr1

please help me to get the result.

Thanks in advance.
