difference in values for Duration.days and datediff for same dates

Hi, I am trying to find the difference between two dates in days. Why am i getting two different values?

 

the first picture is the calculated column .

the second picture is the custom column in PQ editor which uses duration.days

@KV2022 , Please use Truncated Date

 

In Power Query

DateTime.Date([Start Date])

 

 

and In Dax

DateValue([Start Date])

 

 

Use these two in formula and check
