Hello V_K_S,
Thanks for asking the Apple Support Communities for help with your iPad battery. Batteries are consumable, but normal use should be okay. Also, there are options to help you extend the battery life.
1. First, ensure your device stays updated. Use this article to update: Update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
2. Next, check your settings as battery usage depends on many factors. First and most important will be to check out this help article about batteries. The article includes lots of great information along with multiple tips to help you maximize your battery life.

3. If you are using your device in conditions outside of the normal recommended ambient temperatures, the device may behave differently than described in the article. Keeping iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch within acceptable operating temperatures - Apple Support
4. Next, check your settings to verify you reviewed everything to ensure you are getting maximum life from your battery based on how you utilize your iPhone, as well as the Background App refresh. Also check the first article here, any apps using more power than you expect they should be?
5. These three articles have info to help check the battery health, and other important information about the battery in your device:
6. Also, the testing for iPhone batteries are described here: iPhone General Battery Info - Apple
Where the settings are all default, and any deviation from these settings on your device will reduce the battery life: “All settings were default except: Bluetooth was paired with headphones; Wi-Fi was associated with a network; the Wi-Fi feature Ask to Join Networks, Auto-Brightness, and True Tone were turned off.”
Ensure all your settings are adjusted based how you use your device to extend your battery life and test. Thanks and have a wonderful day.
