    This paper investigates the new definition of complexity factor for the case of irrotational spherical relativistic structure in the Rastall theory of gravity (RTG). To do so, we assumed static spherically symmetric metric with anisotropic self-gravitating fluid. We studied Rastall field equations, generalized nonconservation equation, mass function and physical impacts of Rastall parameter α on various material variables by employing certain observational data of compact objects like PSR J1614-2230, 4U1608-52, SAX J 1808.4-3658, 4U1820-30 and Vela X-1. We obtained structure scalars through orthogonal decomposition of the curvature tensor and then utilize these scalars to find the complexity factor of the self-gravitating spherical structure. We examined that the vanishing complexity factor condition is an effective energy density inhomogeneity and an effective anisotropy of pressure which must cancel each other, employed the condition YTF=0. Moreover, we also depicted the solutions of interior formation of spherical stellar object regarding to this vanishing complexity condition. Finally, it is found that the complexity of the system enhances due to the presence of nonminimal to curvature matter couple parameter α. It is very fascinating to report here that these outcomes could be recovered back to former solutions about complexity factor in General Relativity (GR) by imposing α=0.
