Hi @venug ,

 

Sorry for that the information you have provided is not making the problem clear to me.

If you want to create such a table:

Please try:

Table = {10,50,100}
Index = RANKX('Table',[Value],,ASC) 
Bin = 
var _pre=CALCULATE(MAX('Table'[Value]),FILTER('Table',[Index]=EARLIER('Table'[Index])-1))
return
IF([Index]=1, "x <"&[Value], _pre&"> x <"&[Value])

 

Or if you are still confused about it, please provide me with more details about your table and your problem or share me with your pbix file after removing sensitive data.
