_Abhilash Are you pulling from a SQL View and does that view have a clustered column index on it? Also, if you don't need all of the columns in the table then remove them from the view. Columnstore indexes: Overview - SQL Server | Microsoft Docs

Hi _Abhilash ,
If you have done some transformations for all these rows in Power Query Editor, it needs to call the whole table for each step query, you can try to buffer the whole table and then do the transformations for it.

If you only connect to the sql db and import the table directly, you can try to use Direct Query mode to connect to it or try like an index columns for it like Greg mentioned.
