Hi @Purushothaman , please use the resident load to solve your problem.

Raw:
LOAD
Date(DOB) as Date
FROM [lib://file (qtsel_sut)/DOB.xlsx]
(ooxml, embedded labels, table is Date);

Raw1:
Load
Date(Date#(Date,'M/D/YYYY'),'DD.MM.YYYY') as Date1
Resident Raw;

Thanks,

Sankar.

I think it is working fine without trying to transform it.

If you make your default Date format as D/M/YYYY it changes it in a chart as a dimension..
