Hello Harsh Panchal,

Thank you for posting on Microsoft Community,

I understand that you have created a Microsoft 365 organization and an Azure (Entra ID) Organization and you are looking for a way to collapse the two into one.

Please be informed that when you create a Microsoft 365 organization, an Azure tenant is created automatically for you. These two are treated as just one tenant. The only difference is the URI where you access them from. Also, all the domains you have added to your M365 tenant will show up in the Azure tenant same as all the identity objects like users, groups, and applications.

However, if you are sure you have created multiple Organizations and the domains in both tenants are different, then you might need to decide on how to collapse both.

The first option is to choose which tenant will be the default, then un-verify the domain from the other one you wish to discard and verify it in the default tenant you have chosen. Once that is done, you need to recreate all the identity objects in the default tenant. You can then go ahead to delete the second tenant.

Another option is to keep the two tenants and then implement cross-tenant synchronization to collapse your identity objects. Follow this link to get more information https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/entra/identity/multi-tenant-organizations/overview#cross-tenant-synchronization

Let me know if further assistance is required.
