Hi @Sanjit_Makaju

Welcome to the ODK forum. We're glad you're here. When you get a chance, please [introduce yourself on this forum thread](https://forum.getodk.org/t/-/6671). I'd also encourage you to add a picture as your avatar because it helps build community!

You can use `index-repeat` function to fetch data from a different repeat group too. Something like this should work for you:  
[indexed-repeat.xls](https://forum.getodk.org/uploads/short-url/s8J2JwIYaZXbiDj8xbaEg31QP7j.xls) (6.5 KB)

Let us know if you need more help.
