Hi Prashant,

Following code sample shows how you can retrieve picklist values for the “Industry” field of the “Account” object as a list of Schema.PicklistEntry using getDescribe() and getPicklistValues():
  
// Describe the Account.Industry field
Schema.DescribeFieldResult fieldDescription = Account.Industry.getDescribe();
// Get picklist values from field description
List entries = fieldDescription.getPicklistValues();
// Do something with entries
for (Schema.PicklistEntry entry : entries) {
/*
entry.getValue()
entry.getLabel()
entry.isActive()
entry.isDefaultValue()
*/
}
