    There is no supported way of doing this.

    Hi Stefan,   Can we change the version in Manifest file and Deploy,

    as i took an full application Export, the i tried import it, it throwed an error saying Version mismatch when i inspect,

    but when i changed the version in the Manifest file and try to import and inspect, it dint threw an error, 

    can we deploy doing this, or it will hamper the environment or create any issues

    This is what I meant with "not supported". It might work if you do not use any features of the new version, but if things go wrong, you are on your own.

    Vineeth, DO NOT manually edit any files in your appliation zip. Only deploy your application once your production environment is upgrading to 20.4. It's better to have a small delay in your release to production by waiting for the 20.4 upgrade on PROD than to have potentially worse problems by going with an unsupported solution.

    Thanks for suggestions everyone, we upgraded to 20.4 and went with deployment, but for my knowledge, 

    what kind of issues might occur, if we change the version in Manifest file and deploy

    Impossible to say. From "just works" to "break environment". If you have to, be prepared to do a full restore of your environment.
