Hello Deependra, Glad to hear you're interested in Mifos and welcome to the community.
The short answer to your question, unfortunately, is no, you probably would not be able to upgrade to a new version of MIFOS smoothly. It would require doing a code merge which could end up being very painful and taking a long time (if not be near impossible). That said, I would suggest doing the following First, share the gaps you found with the community. We have a lot of MFI's here with a lot of varied products, processes and experiences and what sometimes may appear to be a gap may not be. That way we can help you identify possible solutions to your gaps that may not require customizing Mifos, making for an easier adaption. If after doing a review of your gaps you will still require customizing Mifos, I would recommend getting involved with the Mifos developer list and look at what it takes to become a possible contributor. That way you can benefit from the whole community while you undertake the customization or possibly find some partners to work with. In addition, this would ensure that upgrading Mifos in the future would happen smoothly. You can find more information about joining the developer community here: http://www.mifos.org/developers Cheers!
