Hi @Arul ,

 

Remove the last "Changed type" step under "Applied steps" list. Right click the date column, choose "Change Type"->"Using locale", then, select the right locale which displays the matched date format.

Did you check the format date of your Power BI? Depend on the region is dd/MM/YYYY or MM/dd/YYYY.
