but its not giving me select box option value.

Answer 1

Use entity_load('field_collection_item', array($item_id)) or field_collection_field_get_entity($item)

Sample

$node = node_load($id);
$items = field_get_items('node', $node, 'field_fc');
foreach ($items as $item) {
$fc_value = field_collection_field_get_entity($item);
// Do something.
}

Answer 2

Simple render the field on the node.tpl.php with field machine name:

print render($content['field_collection']);

It's work for me.
