Firebase realtime data in not getting added properly in scope variable angularjs

This is firebase structure for categories2.

enter image description here

and this is for subcategories2.

enter image description here

To display data on screen I want $scope.Categories [] to be filled in this format.

[{
    "id": "1",
    "display_with": "7",
    "image": "/images/salt_sugar.png",
    "name": "Salt & Sugar",
    "subcategories": [{
            "scid": "1",
            "scname": "Sugar Products"
        },

        {
            "scid": "5",
            "scname": "Tea"
        }

    ]
},

.
.
.
.


]

Logic for filling $scope.Categories [].

$scope.Categories = [];
var categoriesRef = firebase.database().ref('categories2');

categoriesRef.on('value', function(snapshot) {
    $scope.Categories = [];

    var recvCategories = [];
    recvCategories = snapshot.val();

    for (var j=0; j<recvCategories.length; ++j){

      var category =  recvCategories[j];
      //alert (category);

      if (category != undefined){

        var category_modified = {};
        category_modified.id = category.id;
        category_modified.display_with = category.display_with;
        category_modified.name = category.name;
        category_modified.image = category.image;

        var subcategories = [];

        for(var key in category.subcategories) {
           var subcategoriesRef = firebase.database().ref('subcategories2/' + key);
           subcategoriesRef.on('value', function(snapshot2) {
              subcategories.push(snapshot2.val());
           });
        }

        category_modified.subcategories = subcategories;
        $scope.Categories.push(category_modified);
      }
    }
    $scope.$apply();  
});

As soon as data is available in want to display it on screen. so i am using $scope.$apply();

The problem is data is not displaying properly. but once i go to other controller and come back to same controller, everything displays as expected.

Why subcategories information is not adding up properly in $scope.Categories[]

I just modified your fiddle. just check the following link https://jsfiddle.net/py3ofkyc/8/

  function myFunction() {
    var subcategories = [];
    var subcategoriesRef = firebase.database().ref('subcategories2');
    subcategoriesRef.on('value', function(snapshot2) {
      subcategories = snapshot2.val();

      var Categories = [];
      var categoriesRef = firebase.database().ref('categories2');
      categoriesRef.on('value', function(snapshot) {
          var Categories = [];
          var recvCategories = [];
          recvCategories = snapshot.val();
          _(recvCategories).forEach(function(value) {
            var category =  value;
            if (category != undefined){
              var category_modified = {};
              category_modified.id = category.id;
              category_modified.display_with = category.display_with;
              category_modified.name = category.name;
              category_modified.image = category.image;
              var _subcategories = [];
              for(var key in category.subcategories) {
                var data = _.filter(subcategories, { 'scid': key });
                _subcategories.push(data[0]);
              }
              category_modified.subcategories = _subcategories;
              Categories.push(category_modified);
            }
          });
          console.log(Categories);
      });

    });
  }`
