Answer 1

In viewDidLoad of ViewController.m

- (void)viewDidLoad {
    [super viewDidLoad];

    UIDatePicker *datePicker = [[UIDatePicker alloc]init];
    [datePicker setDate:[NSDate date]];
    datePicker.datePickerMode = UIDatePickerModeDate;
    [datePicker addTarget:self action:@selector(dateTextField:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventValueChanged];
    [txtFieldBranchYear setInputView:datePicker];
}

Add one method in your ViewController

-(void) dateTextField:(id)sender
{
    UIDatePicker *picker = (UIDatePicker*)txtFieldBranchYear.inputView;
    [picker setMaximumDate:[NSDate date]];
    NSDateFormatter *dateFormat = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init];
    NSDate *eventDate = picker.date;
    [dateFormat setDateFormat:@"dd/MM/yyyy"];

    NSString *dateString = [dateFormat stringFromDate:eventDate];
    txtFieldBranchYear.text = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@",dateString];
}

txtFieldBranchYear is an outlet of UITextField
