    PageReference in Salesforce is a reference to an instantiation of a page. Among other attributes, PageReferences consist of a URL and a set of query parameter names and values.

    Use a PageReference object:

    Methods
    PageReference methods are all called by and operate on a particular instance of a PageReference.

    Hi Aditya.

    Page reference is a class which consist of a URL and a set of query parameter names and values and
    is use to  navigate the user to a different page or Url as the result of an action method.

    Example :

public PageReference returnPage() {
        // Send the user to the detail page for the new account.
        PageReference acctPage = new ApexPages.StandardController(account).view();
        acctPage.setRedirect(true);
        return acctPage;
    }
