Hi Mayank,

In SQL 2012, BISM multi dimensional model uses multidimensional instance, where as tabular model uses tabular instance o9f SQL server. So please check the instance to which you are deploying.I think you are deploying your cube to tabular instance.

To change the instance to which you are deploying your cube,

Right click on your project, click on properties then in depoloyment tab change the server instance to the multi dimensional instance to which you are deploying as shown below.
