Hey Atul, In BPCU log file you should be able to see log line stating exact version of BPCU - e.g INFO - Best Practice Conversion Utility 7.6.04 Mon Mar 28 18:49:18.708
If you don't see, somehow you are using older version of BPCU. Alternate way of finding version of BPCU is - Open bpcu.jar in winzip or winRar Extract Manifest.mf file and see its contents. May be you would like to share its contents with us.
