    Enable 'First release for selected users' from O365 admin center. This will work..

      Hi Sunny,
      Jared Matfess and Cian Allner was right.but i think we need to do one more step.

      we have to change "Create Site Command"  to A site With an office 365 group in settings of sharepoint admin center.

       

      by the way thanks lot all of you.

    Try using 'First release for selected users' instead.

     

    It's an ongoing rollout being done in waves starting with First Release Select Users. It sounds like you have the First Release for Everyone option, which won't work currently.  

     

    I know I lost access to creating communication sites when I switched to First Release for everyone when I wanted to test Microsoft Forms. I talked about this more here.

        I tried first release for selected users but still it shows only team site option.

        would it take some time to refresh the options ?

      Here's a quick snapshot of O365 Admin Center so you can confirm that it matches your tenant:
