I have resolved my issue.
We also need to look at version of visualforce component.

Thanks again for your responses.

There is no complex logic around this, It is just a simple visualforce component where i want to display custom labels dynamically..

Hi,
I believe while you are referring the field in visualforce, you call it as object.fieldapiname like below.
<apex:page standardController="account">
     {!$Label[Account.test_la__c]}
</apex:page>

Similarly, in a component when i try this it shows me the value correctly. Not sure, if this is what you are looking for.

Component: i am passing the account info from VF Page. i think this could be done without that also i.e. fetch the value in the component itself directly.

<apex:component controller="testcomponent">
<apex:attribute assignTo="{!accountObj}" name="account12" type="Account" description="test"/>
    {!$Label[accountObj.test_la__c]}
</apex:component>

Component Controller:
public class testcomponent { 
    public account accountObj{get;set;}
}

VF including component:
<apex:page standardController="account">
<c:testcomponent account12="{!Account}"></c:testcomponent>
</apex:page>

Please mark this as right if this solution works for you.

Thanks,

I am not passing this from page. I had a controller associated to component where i am querying my object with label__c field and using the same as you mentioned but its throwing Syntax error. Found '$Label' error
