Is there any way out to achieve this. They are very adamant with the requirement.

Clustered and stack chart together is achievable with the custom visual but I want to acheive this using 

They can be adamant all day long - still doesn't make it right. Push back hard. Make them understand why the line chart is the wrong choice.

let me know for further queries.

The average physiologial limit for dimensionality comprehension is 3.5 .  You are trying to cram six dimensions into a single chart, and you are trying to use a line chart where it should not be used (non-time-correlated data points).  Simplify your requirement, use different visuals.

I want current year and previous year clustered bar stacked with differenect sources like grid diesel etc.
And also want line graph which will change dynamivally on the basis of current year and previous year.

 

final graph should be something like below:

 1. x - axis region with cy , py bars stacked with sources.
 2. y axis - electricty consumption.

 3.line graph : electricty consumption per sq ft.

Note:Using a line chart for unrelated categories is a UX red flag.
