My property is of text type where user will entera value say :30, whenever he will do tabout the value should get reflect as 30%. note** i don't want edit input as in order to reflect the change from edit input we need to do refresh section which i can't afford.

If "30%" means "Thirty Percent", adding "%" symbol as part of the label should enough to let a user notice the value should be provided in percentage. So, what is your requirement of adding "%" symbol?

No we can't add it in the label.... we have to append that % with value when user tabout from that field.... similarly what pyCurrency do to add currency symbol infron of the value.

Hi Priyankar,
Even if we use the currency control, on tab out of the field the value does not get append/prepend '$' to the entered value. The currency symbol will be displayed only in the read only mode. We need not have to use the currency control, we can configure the currency options under the presentation tab of the controls. Even you can specify '%' as constant, that will be rendered correctly in the read only mode as shown in the below screenshot.
Please let me if this helps.
Thanks,
Gowrishankar.
