Hi nckarthikeyan,

Power BI Desktop is a tool in which you can connect data, transform and shape data, make report with your data.

Power BI Service(powerbi.com) is an online service hosted on azure cloud where you can show your dashboard\report and share your dashboard\report\content pack\app with your group member.

Power Bi Report Server is like Power BI Service but it's not an online service because it should be hosted on machine in company's domain.

For more details, refer to:

Power BI Desktop, Power BI Service, Power BI Report Server
