Which API version are you using?ReadResult is available in API version 30.0 and later.
Kindly confirm if the version is compliant of the above.

hey sonam,
thanks for the help.
i have already set the API to 32.0 in version setting. 
i also created and saved a class with getDescribe() method (of the schema class) and its using API 32.0.
