Did you buy a new iPhone?
Any debris or lint inside the charging port?
Are you using the original USB cable that came with the iPhone and an Apple Watch 20W power adapter to charge the iPhone?
If yes, maybe you should visit an Authorised Apple Service Provider or Apple Store next to your place and let them take a look at it:
