Azure File Shares Access Revoke Issues

Question

When I remove access to one user directly on Azure Portal and NTFS level still user is able to access the files and read and write the data. If the user log-off and log-in then only he is unable to access else he can continue to read-write the data continuously. Is it by design? How can I fix this?

@Madhav Varma M Thanks for raising this question! Firstly, apologies for the delay in responding here and any inconvenience this issue may have caused.
Are you referring to SAS or Stored access policy? May I know what kind of access have you provided(share-level permissions, directory or file-level permissions)

Try to Manage access policy through Azure Storage Explorer tool:
