Hello Anonymous ,
Thanks for the prompt response! The solution you have given is valuable. I have one query related to this - The X-axis should be in ascending order as shown in my attached graph (main content). How can we do that?

hello Anonymous ,
Thank you so much for the support! I have tried column indexing, but it took different numbers for the same values. I learn new tricks to solve these kind of problems.
thanks a lot!
