[RanjnaAggarwal]

Up to how long performance data is stored in vCenter?

anyone who can answer this?

I'm not sure but it can save statistics upto 5 years.

[RanjnaAggarwal]

any vmware source where this info is available?

I couldn't find VMware reference for max limit of statistic, but this would be wholly depend on the size of your DB.

Some useful links:
