Gantt - 8 hours calendar shows baseline as milestone

Hi,
For 8 hours calendar when I am setting a baseline on a load of Gantt it is showing as Milestone. I have attached the recording and data. With 24hour calendar it works well.
Please have a look and suggest what should I do to make it fix.
Thanks!!

It's just the data you provide. I see you provide baseline start date equal to its end date which means it has zero duration:
The Gantt calculates task start, end and duration values to make them consistent.
In case of this task it changes end date based on the provided start date and duration.
So the task is not shown as a milestone due to the provided 1 day duration.

Considering it happens after saving the data please check that you carefully persist date values (namely make sure you do not truncate time info considering I don't see time for baseline dates).
And make sure you don't truncate time when responding data from the server.

yes, we have not saved time and that is where the issue happens. Got it. Thanks!!

For Task Start Date and End Date also we are not storing Time and it is calculated by Gantt itself based on the calendar, Can something similar should be available for baseline dates??
Do we need to pass the Date and Time to make it work?

Task dates are handled by the scheduling Engine but baselines are not (since they are not involved in scheduling really). So I'm afraid you'll have to provide full values for them.
