Hi @TriveniN 
To export the matrix to Excel in the same layout as in the pbi report you should select the option "Data with current layout" when you export it.
Unfortunately, I am out of the limit of screenshots that I can add to the discussions so I recorded my screens to show how it works you can download it from the  attached link:
