    Thankyou, amitchandak and kushanNa for your responses.

    Hi amismail,

    We appreciate your inquiry submitted to the Microsoft Fabric Community Forum.

    Based on my understanding, the built-in Scatter chart does not have a separate Data labels tile as found in column or line charts. This is by design and the option you are looking for is labeled Category label, which is why you do not see Data labels in the Format pane.

    We hope the information provided helps. If you have any further queries, please feel free to contact the Microsoft Fabric Community.

    Thank you.
