Hi,

You are accessing DeleteLead out side of if condtion please use like this.

public with sharing class DML_Delete  {
    public static void RecordsDeletefromLead (String StartText){
        if(StartText != null && StartText != ''){
            StartText +='%';
            List<Lead> DeleteLead = new List<Lead>();
            DeleteLead = [select id,Company from Lead where Company Like:StartText];
            System.debug('DeleteLead'+DeleteLead);
            if(DeleteLead.size()>0){
                delete DeleteLead;
            }
        }
    }
}

Declare the variable outside the loop. We are performing the DML operation on list and not on on the MAP. Each map value is a list of Lead, not a single Lead, so you are asking to deletea list of lists of Lead, which isn't allowed.

So code will be like belwo. 
public class deleteclass {
public static void RecordsDeletefromLead (string StartText)
    {
        List<Lead> DeleteLead= new  List<Lead>();
        if(StartText !='Null' && StartText !='')
        {
            StartText +='%';
             DeleteLead =[select id,Company from Lead where Company Like:StartText];
        }
        if(!DeleteLead.isEmpty())
        {
            delete DeleteLead;
        }      
    } 
}
