Hello,

 

I have resolved the issue, I have created measures for all indivisual columns and applied the formatting to each row.

Example: 

10th = SWITCH(
    TRUE(),
    MAX(Table1[DESC_COLUMN]) = "Observed", FORMAT(MAX(Table1[PERCENTILE_Column]),"#,0.0"),
    ----- Same for all Rows -----,
   FORMAT(MAX(Table1[PERCENTILE_Column]), "#,0")
    )
 
It resolves the issue.
Thanks

Hi @AtulsDream 

 

Please try using dynamic format strings:
