Hi Reena, Try this code..... div class = "row" > input type = "hidden" #matchEl > input type = "password" [(ngModel)]="userName" placeholder = "Enter any password" > input type = "password" inputFormat [format]="userName" [matchEl]="matchEl" [(ngModel)]="confirmPassword" placeholder = "Enter any password" > span * ngIf = "matchEl.value==1" > Not Matched span > span * ngIf = "matchEl.value==0" > Matched span > div > Now, in your custom directive file, put this code : @Input() format:string= '' ; @Input() matchEl:any; textValue:string= "" ; @HostListener( 'blur' ) onBlur(eventData:Event){ this .textValue= this .eleRef.nativeElement.value; if ( this .format!= this .textValue) this .matchEl.value=1; else this .matchEl.value=0; } Hope, it will help you.

Hi Reena, Actually, we have two options, either we use @Output() decorator function and by this, we receive the value in app.component.ts file, and for the second method we use the hidden property to receive this value on our directive file.
