You are using the appcompat (and other support libraries) v23 .
You have to compile your project with API 23.

Change in your build.gradle the compileSdkVersion to 23

You have to update your SDK to the API 23 (in case you are compiling with 23).
compileSdkVersion, and Support Libraries version should be same. The below code indicate that these are same as at line 3 and 2nd line in dependencies.

apply plugin: 'com.android.application'

android {
    compileSdkVersion 23
    buildToolsVersion "23.0.0"

    defaultConfig {
        applicationId "com.example.inzi.app"
        minSdkVersion 9
        targetSdkVersion 23
        versionCode 1
        versionName "1.0"
    }
    buildTypes {
        release {
            minifyEnabled false
            proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android.txt'), 'proguard-rules.pro'
        }
    }
}

dependencies {
    compile fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: ['*.jar'])
    compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:23.0.0'
}

Please don't copy and paste your answer in more posts. In this case how do you know the last line of the build.gradle if it is not reported in the original question? As you can read the gradle stacktrace, the author is using the appcompat23. And yes, the support libraries v23 have to match the api23 , so you have to compile with api 23. – Gabriele Mariotti Aug 21 '15 at 14:02
yes I got that when gabriele told me I change it.Guess what it running well – ankit tale Aug 21 '15 at 14:07
