this doesn't help, its not showing the portion of budget see my graph below (like how it shows in the default guage chart), it should be 2 colors

@saud968 this i have already watched, i am looking to incorporat a dial in the guage chart (Center)
like a long needle
Then you have to use a custom visual

@saud968 yeah tried that, not useful though, is it possible to develop this using Charticulator or something?
there are few visuals available in market place, but all are paid ones
I am not sure about Charticulator you can give it a try... I will suggest this custom visual - https://appsource.microsoft.com/en-us/product/power-bi-visuals/WA104381184?tab=Overview
