    @sreenath welcome to the Microsoft Q&A community.

    If you've canceled your Azure subscription but are still getting charged, there could be a few reasons for this:

    Billing cycle timing: Sometimes, charges occur because they were already processed before cancellation took effect.

    Remaining usage fees: If your subscription had any outstanding charges from previous usage, those fees might still appear after cancellation.

    Other linked services: If you have resources or services still active, they may continue incurring charges.

    Accidental reactivation: If the subscription was reinstated or if there's another active subscription tied to your account, that might explain the charges.

    You might want to check your Azure billing statement or contact Microsoft Azure support to clarify what's happening. You can visit the Azure support portal here to get help directly.

    I hope these helps. Let me know if you have any further questions or need additional assistance.
