the above equation is my objective function.
in this problem , i have both linear equality and inequality and nonlinear constraint. and the decision variables are non-negative and integer. but in GA toolbox, when there are integer constraint, GA does not accept linear or nonlinear equality constraint. it accepts only inequality constraint.
how can i solve this problem in GA toolbox.

Please read the guide to tags and retag this question. http://www.mathworks.co.uk/matlabcentral/answers/43073-a-guide-to-tags
You do realize that your function is completely unreadable? Have you considered adding some whitespace? The same constants appear to be repeated a number of times: have you considered giving names to those constants and using them in the formula? Have you considered documenting justification for why the 45.83 should not be (for example) 45.82794 ?

(A == B) can be expressed as ((A <= B) & (-A <= -B))

The equality constraints would have to have a very particular structure to be satisfied by integer-valued variables within TolCon precision. You would have to be sure in advance that the manifold the constraints define contains an integer-valued point exactly. That probably means that the coefficients of the equalities would have to be integers as well, e.g., like this
x+y+z=10
In cases like this, you should probably eliminate some variables so that the constraints are not needed. In this example, that could be done by replacing z in the fitness function by
z=10-x-y
