Hi @parameshulthi 
The format u want is not possible in powerbi matrix , it is not that much flexible as of now , you can create something like this by using cards but you have to work on each card manually which is not a good idea. 
I have tried in matrix please have a look.

Thank you for the response @elitesmitpatel 

Could you please help me if it is possible with custom visuals or Power BI Report Builder tool?
