    @Vinod Survase, Thanks for posting in Q&A. The Windows Package Manager, or winget, is an open-source project developed by Microsoft. It is maintained by Microsoft employees and community contributors on GitHub. The apps available through winget are updated by their respective developers.

    And winget can be used to install the latest version of an app. When apps are deployed using Intune, most apps are automatically updated when there's an app update available. And the update is uploaded by their own developer.

    Hope the above information can help.
