Hi Vivek ,

Please try this code:

Combobox.cmp
<aura:component implements="force:appHostable,flexipage:availableForAllPageTypes">
    <aura:attribute name="options" type="List" default="[
    {'label': 'Burlington Textiles Corp of America', 'value': 'Burlington Textiles Corp of America'},
    {'label': 'Dickenson plc', 'value': 'Dickenson plc'},
    {'label': ' Edge Communications', 'value': ' Edge Communications'},
    ]"/>

    <lightning:combobox name="relateTo" label="Relate to" value="Relate to" placeholder="Select Progress" options="{! v.options }" onchange="{! c.handleChange }"/>
</aura:component>

Combobox.js
({
    handleChange: function (c, e) {
        // This will contain the string of the "value" attribute of the selected option
        var selectedOptionValue = e.getParam("value");
        alert("Option selected with value: '" + selectedOptionValue + "'");
    }
})
