Hi Piyush, Usually, Kafka only produces releases for the 2 most recent branches. Ex: We're going to release V3.1, and some fix will also back port to V3.0 branch. So, from the download page, you can see most minor version is only up to 1, ex: 2.3.1, 2.5.1... But that's not a strict rule, so you'll also find some releases have minor version to 2, ex: 2.6.2 (and there's going to be 2.6.3 released due to CVE)
If you want to know a minimal supported version, I'd say, 2 versions. (ex: v3.1, v3.0) Please correct me if I'm wrong. Thank you.
