    Hello Vignesh,

    Thank you for posting in our community.

    In order to display igCombo in igGrid cell a template can be used. This template is added in the column definition in the columns collection via the template option.

    By design igGrid Updating feature requires user interaction in order to enter edit mode for particular row or cell. When in edit mode all editor instances are reused for different rows for performance reasons. If there is an editor rendered for every row this may have a serious performance implications especially in cases when larger data is used. Additionally, in case that other features are enabled some custom handlings may be required. 

    My suggestion is to use the approach suggested in the Working igCombo editor provider topic.

    Please let me know if you need any further assistance with this matter.
