Hi @Maheshwari ,

you need to add a column that identifies the group and then pivot on it:

 

let
    Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("i45WCkgsKlHSUXJUitWJVjIEsvISc1PBHCMoB8IzhvEgXKg2J7i2ssScUoQ+MA+hEcKF8E0QfBSjnOFGZadWwg0CsoGcWAA=", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type nullable text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [#"Column1" = _t, #"Column2" = _t]),
    #"Added Custom" = Table.AddColumn(Source, "GroupIdentifier", each if [Column1] = "Part" then [Column2] else null),
    #"Filled Down" = Table.FillDown(#"Added Custom",{"GroupIdentifier"}),
    #"Filtered Rows" = Table.SelectRows(#"Filled Down", each ([Column1] <> "Part")),
    #"Pivoted Column" = Table.Pivot(#"Filtered Rows", List.Distinct(#"Filtered Rows"[GroupIdentifier]), "GroupIdentifier", "Column2")
in
    #"Pivoted Column"
