Hi Chinnu,
If you have defined the monthly axis so that it really lines up with your JJAS time axis, then the values won't be changed with a linear interpolation. "Monthly" time is a bit ambiguous, so if the time coordinates aren't exactly the same on the axis you define, then Ferret will do some interpolating between the axes.
Look at the details for a few months of your axes:
yes? ! the axis you are defining
yes? ! the axis of your original data
yes? show axis/t=1-jun-1948:30-sep-1949 `var,return=taxis`
yes? show axis/t=1-jun-1948:30-sep-1949 tax_mon
Do the coordinates have the same dates and times for the months that are present on the original data axis? Are they both regularly spaced? The two axes do NOT need to have the same units. Ferret converts between different time units so if your original data has units of days or hours, that's fine. But if the coordinates don't agree, then the data will be interpolated.
You could try to define your monthly time axis so that the coordinates for JJAS match on both axes, or look at using a different regridding transformation.

I would like to make above time axis into a continuous one from january to december for the entire data period without having any change in the JJAS values. I tried to define a grid with
DEFINE AXIS/t=15-jun-1948:15-sep-2015:1/UNITS=months tax_mon
I am getting continuous time axis from january to december for 1948 to 2015, but the values of JJAS of each year has been changed.
Thanks in advance.
