    To create a calculated column as below.

    flag = 
VAR last3month =
    EDATE ( TODAY (), -3 )
VAR disc =
    CALCULATE (
        DISTINCTCOUNT ( 'Table'[Turnover ] ),
        FILTER (
            'Table',
            'Table'[project_id] = EARLIER ( 'Table'[project_id] )
                && 'Table'[Date] >= last3month
                && 'Table'[Date] <= TODAY ()
        )
    )
RETURN
    IF (
        'Table'[Date] >= last3month
            && 'Table'[Date] <= TODAY (),
        IF ( disc > 1, "Active", "Inactive" ),
        BLANK ()

1. Create Quick measure  as shown in the picture.
2. Pass only Dates Dim/Calendar table date as Date value
3. Value field as 'Turnover
4. Power BI Creates a Measure [Turnover MoM%]

Note: If you dont have CALENDAR table, manully derive the value MoM%

5. using this Measure derive your desired calculated column as below:
StatusFlag = IF([Turnover MoM%] = 0,"Inactive", "Active")
