Hi jayanthan ,
You could implement it in Query Editor. I created a sample that you can follow the steps.
1. Select the columns of Q1, Q2, Q3 and Q4 > unpivot columns.
2. Remove the column of Attribute.
3. Then you get the table that you want.
let Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("i45W8snPS8nPU9JRMtQ31DcyMLQAMk0QTDN9YwMY21LfyALCjtWJVvJNzEvOSC0uSS0CSikQqyscqCMjMReqRQG32lgA", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [City = _t, Q1 = _t, Q2 = _t, Q3 = _t, Q4 = _t]), #"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"City", type text}, {"Q1", type date}, {"Q2", type date}, {"Q3", type date}, {"Q4", type date}}), #"Unpivoted Columns" = Table.UnpivotOtherColumns(#"Changed Type", {"City"}, "Attribute", "Value"), #"Removed Columns" = Table.RemoveColumns(#"Unpivoted Columns",{"Attribute"}), #"Renamed Columns" = Table.RenameColumns(#"Removed Columns",{{"Value", "Date"}}) in #"Renamed Columns"Best Regards,

Did you find a way to make it appear on power query editor jayanthan? I created a new table from my source file using query with the hopes to transpose/ unpivot it later, but the table I created is not showing on my power query editor 😞
