Hi @danish.siddique

I see that you are visiting as a new member. Welcome to the Autodesk Community! 

Can you try changing your master units to mm in Revit and export the IFC file again? Let us know if there is an improvement to your graphics.

• When working with IFC files in Revit, the first step should be installing the latest version of the plugin which can be downloaded here: https://sourceforge.net/projects/ifcexporter/ or through the Autodesk AppStore http://apps.autodesk.com

Before linking an IFC file, click Open (IFC Options) and use the Import IFC Options dialog to do the following:

• Select a template to use for IFC files.
• Download a IFC template HERE (Look under Revit instructions and samples) - IFC to get metric templates
• Load an IFC class mapping file or manually assign Revit categories to IFC classes and types.
• Make sure the IFC file contains the geometric data needed for the Revit capability that you plan to use. For more information, see About Imported Geometry.
• Click HERE for more information

• Open (IFC ) The Open Dialog offers some options which can help handle IFC Files in Revit:

   AutoJoin Elements will attempt to join Walls and other elements like it is automatically happening when modelling in Revit. However, this option can sometimes lead to errors or corrupted geometry. In this case, this option can be unchecked, which will ignore all Joints.

  Correct lines that are slightly off axis is an option familiar from the CAD Link / Import option and basically does the same. It can be left checked, unless the project has some elements which are slightly off axis on purpose.

Let us know if you are able to resolve your issue.We are glad to help!
