Xamarin Forms Httpclient PostAsync returns null

Question

Homepage showing products in a list according to the category selected.Initially showing products of first category. API response is null for first category but count is correct,showing only blank frames. After switching from other categories, products are shown correctly.Awaited the tasks. I think the problem is with async-await calls.Help need to rectify this..

        private async Task InitializeAsync()
        {
            await Get_categories(); //calling method
        }
        public Task Initialization { get; private set; }       

        public  Grid_vm() //constructor
        {
            Initialization = InitializeAsync();
        }

        public async Task Get_categories()

            Categorylist = new List<Category_value>();                    
                foreach (Category_data cat in items.data)
                {
                    Category_value category = new Category_value();
                    if (cat.category_id=="6")
                    {

Answer 1

opacity was provided inside the Get_branch_products (string category_id) method else block as 0.25.

val.opacity = 1; 
OnPropertyChanged("opacity"); 

was not given inside if block adding it there solved the issue.
