@bhanu-under25 thanks for reporting this issue Pagination on the message list is quite tricky and we're trying to support as many features as possible while keeping the functionality as stable as we can. This is a somewhat known issue (it doesn't happen always, it's quite random) and we're going to try fixing it once we release the stable v5 For the moment, I can try exposing the minCacheExtent parameter of the message list view, maybe this helps. I'll let you know what I find out

Hey @bhanuU25, we did some updates in the StreamMessageListView. Can you test again with the latest changes on develop and let us know?

Thanks.
