@MEHUL123 Try this. PBIX is attached below signature.

Distinct Count = 
    VAR __Name = MAX( 'Table'[Name] )
    VAR __Table = FILTER( ALLSELECTED( 'Table' ), 'Table'[Name] = __Name )
    VAR __Group = SUMMARIZE( __Table, [Name], [ID] )
    VAR __Result = COUNTROWS( __Group )
RETURN
    __Result

@MEHUL123 

DAX measure:

Distinct ID Count = 
CALCULATE(
DISTINCTCOUNT(Table[ID NO.]),
ALLEXCEPT(Table, Table[Name])
)

This will give you the distinct count of ID NO. for each Name.

 

 

If this helped, a Kudos 👍 or Solution mark would be great!🎉
