@sunil_sacha , 

 You can achieve this with the following steps. 

Step 1: Insert > Timer Control  

Step 2: Change the following properties of timer: 

#	Property Name	Property Value
1	Duration	0
2	AutoStart	true
3	Repeat	true
4	OnTimerEnd	Set(CurrentTime, Now())
5	Visible	false

Step 3: Insert Text box control > Set Default property to Text(CurrentTime,”dddd  dd/mm/yyyy hh:mm:ss”)

In this way you can see the current time in the textinput control. Run the app to see the changes.
