Hi @Hareensunny ,

Please try to create a new column with below dax formula:

 

Cummulative Sum =
VAR _a = [Column1]
VAR _b = [Column2]
VAR _c = [Column3]
VAR _d = [Column4]
VAR _e = [Column5]
VAR tmp =
    FILTER (
        'Table',
        [Column1] = _a
            && MONTH ( [Column2] ) = MONTH ( _b )
            && [Column3] = _c
            && [Column4] = _d
    )
VAR tmp1 =
    FILTER ( tmp, [Column2] <= _b )
RETURN
    SUMX ( tmp1, [Column6] )
