Hi Pratheep,   
  
Thanks for Contacting Syncfusion Support.   
   
We have analyzed the attached project file and we suspect that this issue may occurs due to “ej.webforms.min.js” Script file which you may missed to refer in your sample. You can get the text and key value of the selected Autocomplete item, using the Value and SelectValueByKey properties in code behind. We have prepared a sample with your requirement, find it in the below link.  
  
   
For further references check the below,   
   
If this is not your requirement kindly revert with your exact scenario. So that we can help you out best.    
   
Regards,
Narayanasamy P

Hi Pratheep,   
Thanks for your update.   
  We were unable to reproduce the issue in the shared screenshots. If you are facing an issue after PostBack function call, we suggest that you use  DataSourceCachingMode="ViewState" in our control.    
Example code:   
<ej:Autocomplete ID="categoryGrouping" Width="205px"  ShowPopupButton="true" FilterType="Contains" HighlightSearch="true" DataSourceCachingMode="ViewState"  runat="server" WatermarkText="Select a category" ClientSideOnSelect="OnSelect"/> 
 
After this, if you still face any errors, then please share the following details.  
      Run the sample and open the developer tools in your browser using F12 key. Share the error message, if there is any error in console or else check whether the referred script and CSS are loaded properly.   
     In the Visual studio application, expand the reference field and if you find any of the reference         missing, please refer to the missed dll from your machine.  
    Ensure whether the script and CSS are available in your application.  
        
Regards,   
Narayanasamy P.
