Hello @SatyaSunitha1_ I am not sure which version of Power BI Desktop you are using. If your version is after November 2022 then you can turnoff that backgroud as per below screen shot:

Hi @SatyaSunitha1_,

 

As far as I know, it is not allowed to customize the background color of data labels right now. So, we cannot remove the default background color of data label in the "Line and Stacked Column Chart". You can submit your idea at this page. Your feedback is valuable for us to improve the level of our products and service.

 

Best regards,
