2012-05-09 10:28:47.981 | SYNC  | 00041 | DEBUG   | Customer_Receive Payment | Task            | Task started on a component            | B678C56D-96DA-4FFC-B40E-9A032A2EB12E          | filesystem:CERR                     | {}

your 7th field has space also.

so, use this

gsub(" ","",$7) -- remove all the space. So your 7th field becomes "Taskstarted"

Code:
 
awk -v var4="$var2" -v var5="$var3" -F\| '{gsub(" ","",$7)} $7=="Taskstarted" && $8~var4 && $9~var5  {print $1}' input.txt >> file1.txt

if I have to check more than one word like "Task started" or "Exchange started"
so will this code work??
Code:
awk -v var4="$var2" -v var5="$var3" -F\| '{gsub(" ","",$7)} ($7=="Taskstarted" || $7=="Exchangestarted")&& $8~var4 && $9~var5  {print $1}' Sri1.log >> file1.txt

try this

Code:
 
awk -v var4="$var2" -v var5="$var3" -F\| '{gsub(" ","",$7)} $7~/^Taskstarted$|^Exchangestarted$/' && $8~var4 && $9~var5  {print $1}' Sri1.log >> file1.txt
