Try something like this:

VAR MaxPrice = 
	MAX(Table[Price])

VAR ProductNames = 
	CALCULATE (
		CONCATENATEX(
			VALUES(Table[Product]),
			Table[Product],
			", " ),
	Table[Price] = MaxPrice
	)
	
RETURN ProductNames

i did the below and it worked - nice and simple!

Most Expensive Product = LOOKUPVALUE(Products[ProductName],Products[UnitPrice],MAX(Products[UnitPrice]))

In your test case that works fine. Just be aware that LOOKUPVALUE will return an error if more than one product has the same max price unless you specify an alternative result. @calerof  solution will return BLANK in such cases. I included CONCATENATEX as it will return a list of all max prices.

Hi @AmritaOS ,

You could also use this code:

Highest Price = 
CALCULATE(
    SELECTEDVALUE(Table_20211202[Product Name]),
    Table_20211202[Unit Price] = MAX(Table_20211202[Unit Price])
)

And get this result:

Hope it helps.
