Hi @pranays2 ,

I created a sample pbix file(see the attachment), please check if that is what you want.

1. Add one index column in Power Query Editor

2. Create a calculated column as below to get it

Column B = 
VAR _nextindex =
    CALCULATE (
        MIN ( 'Table'[Index] ),
        FILTER ( 'Table', 'Table'[Index] > EARLIER ( 'Table'[Index] ) )
    )
RETURN
    CALCULATE (
        MAX ( 'Table'[Column A] ),
        FILTER ( 'Table', 'Table'[Index] = _nextindex )
    ) + 0

If the above one can't help you, could you please provide more raw data in your tables (exclude sensitive data) with Text format and your expected result with backend logic and special examples? It would be helpful to find out the solution. You can refer the following links to share the required info:

And It is better if you can share a simplified pbix file. You can refer the following link to upload the file to the community. Thank you.

Hi @pranays2 ,

I updated my sample pbix file(see the attachment) with creating a measure, please check if that is what you want.

Measure = 
VAR _selindex =
    SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Table'[Index] )
VAR _selcolumnA =
    SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Table'[Column A] )
VAR _nextindex =
    CALCULATE (
        MIN ( 'Table'[Index] ),
        FILTER ( ALLSELECTED ( 'Table' ), 'Table'[Index] > _selindex )
    )
RETURN
    CALCULATE (
        MAX ( 'Table'[Column A] ),
        FILTER ( ALLSELECTED ( 'Table' ), 'Table'[Index] = _nextindex )
    ) + 0
