Hi @esuryahadi ,

Since your x-axis is Month, the values will be automatically summarized based on Month:

If you want two values from the same month not to be aggregated, the only way to distinguish between them is to put a second field on the x-axis.
For example:
Here is my sample data:

vjunyantmsft_1-1706166489292.png

When I put only months in the x-axis, Value is automatically summarized and there is no way to separate it:

vjunyantmsft_2-1706166629210.png

When I put another ID field into the x-axis, because different IDs exist for the same month's value, it separates at that point:
