I have two conditions needs to be compared to set token value in the second dropdown. First condition from dropdown 1 (token="view") and second condition from dropdown 2 ( token="category"). Please tell us if there is any alternative way of doing this.

    <input type="dropdown" token="view">d<label>View</label>
      <choice value="A">A</choice>
      <choice value="B">B</choice>
      <default>A</default>
    </input>
    <input type="dropdown" token="category">
      <label>Category</label>
      <choice value="X">X</choice>
      <choice value="Y">Y</choice>
      <change>
      <!-- Something like below condition i need -->
        <condition value="X">
            <condition match="$view% == 'A'">
                <set token="showX">Test1</set>
            </condition>
            <condition match="$view% == 'B'">
                <set token="showX">Test2</set>
            </condition>
        </condition>
        <condition value="Y">
            <unset token="showX">Test 3</unset>
        </condition>
      </change>
    </input>

@handsomehari, try the following to use <eval> tag in Simple XML to set the token value based on condition.
PS: Since your showX token is depended on both Dropdowns, you would also need to created <change> Event Handler for view, dropdown to set and unset showX token similar (but inverse) to the logic in the category dropdown:

  <fieldset submitButton="false">
    <input type="dropdown" token="view" searchWhenChanged="true">
      <label>View</label>
      <choice value="A">A</choice>
      <choice value="B">B</choice>
      <default>A</default>
      <change>
        <condition value="A">
          <eval token="showX">case($category$=="X","Test1",$category$=="Y",$showX$)</eval>
        </condition>
        <condition value="B">
          <eval token="showX">case($category$=="X","Test2",$category$=="Y",$showX$)</eval>
        </condition>
      </change>
    </input>
    <input type="dropdown" token="category" searchWhenChanged="true">
      <label>Category</label>
      <choice value="X">X</choice>
      <choice value="Y">Y</choice>
      <change>
        <condition value="X">
          <eval token="showX">case($view$=="A","Test1",$view$=="B","Test2")</eval>
        </condition>
        <condition value="Y">
          <unset token="showX"></unset>
        </condition>
      </change>
    </input>    
  </fieldset>

PS: The $category$=="Y",$showX$, unsets the showX token as per requirement.
Following HTML Panel can be added to test the tokens:

  <row>
    <panel>
      <html>
        <b>Token Values</b><br/>
        <div>
          view: $view$<br/>
          category: $category$<br/>
          showX: $showX$<br/>
        </div>  
      </html>
    </panel>
  </row>

Please try out and confirm.
