To redirect /companydata.php?name=apple to /apple you can use the following rule :

RewriteEngine on

RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} /companydata\.php\?name=apple [NC]
RewriteRule ^ /apple? [L,R]

If the name permameter is dyanamic, you can use :

RewriteEngine on

RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} /companydata\.php\?name=([^\s]+) [NC]
RewriteRule ^ /%1? [L,R]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^([^/]+)/?$ /companydata.php?name=$1 [L]

What url are you going to? this works if you enter /companydata.php?name=apple and redirects to /apple does the uri /apple exist?
