@gauravnarchal If I understand, correctly, try the following PBIX is attached below signature.

Measure = 
    VAR __Name = MAX('Table'[Name])
    VAR __Group = MAX('Table'[Group])
    VAR __Category = MAX('Table'[Category])
    VAR __Table = FILTER(ALL('Table'), [Isparent] = "Yes" && [Name] = __Group)
    VAR __ParentCategory = MAXX(__Table, [Category])
    VAR __ParentGroup = MAXX('Table', [Group])
    VAR __Result = 
        SWITCH( TRUE(), 
            __Group = BLANK(), BLANK(),
            __Group = __ParentGroup && __Category = __ParentCategory, TRUE(),
            FALSE()
        )
RETURN
    __Result
