Can you please share a codepen? There's not much to go on to help here.

It is unlikely that this is a tailwind css issue. The codepen doesn't have any fonts selected which mean that the browser default is used also the tailwind template has not been used. But it looks like it is a font issue rather than a tailwind issue. Special characters are treated differently based on how the font designer created them. They can have what look like different baselines to other characters. You might have to isolate the '@' character to adjust its alignment seperately.

I removed the font setting and this is what i got so how can I resolve this behavior and what do you mean by isolating the '@' character

You could have the '@' character in a nested span allowing you to control it line positioning independently of the other text but this becomes harder to manage over time.

You'll need specific html/css for each time you want to use a special character. Doing that once in the html is easy but each time you'd have have to repeat this pattern. Now imagine if you have more devs on the project or more pages where you need this pattern. Over time you incur a technical debt because of this decision. If you change fonts you'll have to find all places where you use this pattern to see if it was impacted by the font change.
