Hi @RENJITH_R_S 
You can achieve your goal, using the offset function.

1. Create a basic sum measure:

SumValue = sum('Table'[Value])
2. Use it on your offset calculation measure:
ValuesDiff = [SumValue]-
CALCULATE([SumValue],OFFSET(-1,ALLSELECTED('Table'[Period]),ORDERBY('Table'[Period],ASC)))

if you use a slicer or you have spaces in the date, it's better to write the measure like this

CALCULATE(
      [SumValue],
       OFFSET(-1,
            SUMMARIZE(ALLSELECTED('Table'),'Table'[Period]),ORDERBY('Table'[Period],ASC)))
