data = [
  {name: "ABC",   amount: "34.0",   date: "11/12/2015"},
  {name: "DEF",  amount: "120.11", date: "11/12/2015"},
  {name: "MNO", amount: "12.01",  date: "01/04/2016"},
  {name: "XYZ", amount: "34.05",  date: "01/04/2016"}

var gfg = d3.group(data, d => d.name);
  
console.log(Array.from(gfg));


Output:

  [ [ 'ABC', [ [Object] ] ],
  [ 'DEF', [ [Object] ] ],
  [ 'MNO', [ [Object] ] ],
  [ 'XYZ', [ [Object] ] ] ]

]
  
var gfg = d3.group(data, d => d.name, d => d.date);
console.log(Array.from(gfg));


Output:

[ [ 'ABC', Map { '11/12/2019' => [Array] } ],
  [ 'DEF', Map { '11/02/2020' => [Array] } ],
  [ 'MNO', Map { '01/04/2020' => [Array] } ],
