List<custom obj__c> lrecords=[
                       select Id,name,
                              from custom obj__c   
                 ];

 lrecords[0].Fileld1__c = 2;
            lrecords[0].Fileld2__c =3;

This means that your query has returned no records that match the criteria.  If you then attempt to access an element at row 0, this will throw an error as that row doesn't exist.

 

Its good practice to check there are records first:

 

List<custom obj__c> lrecords=[
                       select Id,name,
                              from custom obj__c   
                 ];

if (lrecords.size()>0)
{
   lrecords[0].Fileld1__c = 2;
            lrecords[0].Fileld2__c =3;
            update lrecords;
}
