Currently the orientation of the label is determined automatically by the width of the chart. This should be an option you can select against the axis.

It would better if we can adjust Power BI Graphs like we can do in Excel.

RE: Set orientation of column or row labels in charts.

I agree, like we can in Excel graphs. I am currently sitting with 3 different axis label orientations in my report (all with 12 months on the axis) which looks very unprofessional.
