hi  @ghosh_kavitha 

you must know that the way the "Percent" conditional formatting works is different than you think, it doesn't have anything to do with percent of total.  It take the lowest and hightest displayed amounts and uses those to determine the formatting bands based on the Percent you entered so your table is looking at these numbers to apply the formatting.

So for your case, just replace "Percent" with "Number

Don't use Percent, use Number. I know, it's confusing when you have percents but this comes up quite a bit. Use Number and put in your percentages as decimal numbers.
