You can't have different options for different pages. The options of the select attribute (or any attribute for that matter) will be the same across the whole site. If you want different options for different pages you would need to create different attributes.
Hi Jordan
If I follow the steps manually, as mentioned in the below page, I'm able to get different options for the same attribute

I'm just wondering, how to do this through scripting

While the attribute has a single set of options, you could subset those options shown for a particular page with some jQuery.
This would obviously require some development work and would need to be loaded and execute when the attribute value was edited.
// This is jquery-ish pseudo-code to outline the solution switch (page_path) case 'a/page/path' $(the_attribute_select options).each(function(){ if (this_option_value is_not_wanted){ $(this_option).remove() } }); // etc....

Able to save the options
and getting the values properly by using $curPage->getCollectionAttributeValue('tab_attr');

$opt = SelectAttributeTypeOption::add($ak, 'Tab1', 0, 0); $curPage->setAttribute($ak, $opt);

getting some problem with saving multiple options :(
As Jordan said, I think its better to have separate attributes per page.
Can anybody please tell me how multiselect works for a page

Multiselect shows on the page properties as a list of checkboxes that you tick.
ya, actually I'm hiding it for the enduser, and managing it on my own, there I'm facing the pbm.
Basically I'm creating a TAB component based on this SELECT attr.
