I am using the following chart options.

      chartArea: { height: '80%', width: '90%' },
      hAxis: { slantedText: false, format: 'MMM,yy',
        gridlines: {
            count: -1,
            units: {
              months: {format: ['MMM,yy']}
            }
          },
          minorGridlines: {
          color: 'none',
          }
      },

H-Axis renders and displays correctly when there are multiple intervals, like months, years etc. But when there is only one unit (e.g one month), it displays times tamp on the h-axis. Both the pictures are attached.

I tried changing the format many ways, but still no luck, all the options are ignored by Google API.

Any idea?

I would recommend you try the 'upcoming' version.  There are many changes that might fix your problem.  In particular, you have an hAxis.format option that will probably be ignored in this context for the current version.

Thanks for the reply. Yes I tried dateFormat and other options as per the API Documentation. However all options are ignored and when I remove "format: 'MMM,yy', " it displays just years, like 2010, 2020, 2050 etc.

Also I am afraid to update the version as this is a bug and this application is already in Production.

The 'upcoming' version will be changed to 'current' once it is pushed out (when it is ready, maybe in a couple more weeks), so you might as well test it now.

Without updating and upgrading the version, can we not fix this with the existing version?

The current version will not be changed until it is updated with the upcoming version.  There might be a workaround you could apply with the current version, but I don't really want to try to figure it out since it will be obsolete soon anyway.
