| eno | ename | deptno | salary |
| 1 | Raja | 1 | 5000 |
| 5 | Praveen | 1 | 10000 |

Hi SivaReddy,
Create calculated table as:
CALCULATETABLE = CALCULATETABLE( 'Table','Table'[deptno]=1 )Here is the output:

You cannot output a table as a measure. You can use CALCULATETABLE as part of your measure calculation steps but you must return a single (scalar) value at the end.
