Hi @ajaymanshani,
Thank you for reaching out to the Microsoft fabric community forum.
The issue you are facing with the Index measure not returning the correct total value is happening because the way DAX calculates totals for measures is different from how it processes individual rows.
I tested it with my sample data, and it worked fine. Please find the attached Pbixand screenshot for your reference.
If this solution worked for you, kindly mark it as Accept as Solution and feel free to give a Kudos, it would be much appreciated.
Thank you,

Hi @ajaymanshani ,
Can you please try below things to fnd out the actual problem:
1. Please check once again for all measures data types
2. Try to recreate all the 4 measures as CALCUALTED COLUMNS and then create the final calculated column with all those 4.
3.Try to optimize the data model.
Above are the steps to find out what is the issue. Based on the understanding, you can debug more into measures in the approach which you are trying.
Please let me know if there is any questions..

@ajaymanshani What are the base measure formulas and how many rows of data do you have? Probably need to optimize the base measures in some way as you are running out of memory trying to compute this.
