Hi Suremajaji,
In the bar chart, data labels display on the top of each bar automatically if there are sufficient space between the top of the bar and chart border. Otherwise, data labels will display inside of bars. Currently, there is no OOTB features for us to set position of data labels based on our preference.
In your scenario, please make sure the End value in the X axis is Auto. So that data labels will display on the top of bars.
For this issue, you can also submit a idea in Power BI Ideas forum.
