Hi Jayesh,
I think the short answer is "no". A shapefile can only deal with one
geometry layer at a time by construction. To handle multiple layers in
the same file, folks have gone to geospatial databases, where each table
is a separate layer if the table has a geometry column. An "open" format
that would do what you want can be done using SpatiaLite:

I know I can merge shapefiles using ogr2ogr but is there a way to
group them? So that each layer can be separate and we just send users
a single file (other then zip)?
I don't know any but wondering if someone.
Thanks,
