@SM123 In your business rule replace line number 8 with the following code and let me know if it works.

current.description = gr.cat_item.description.replace(/<\/?[^>]+(>|$)/g, "");

Hope this helps.

@SM123 please try to trim the description and let me know, if still the same.
current.description = current.description.trim();
