Sorry, I forgot that you use list. In list as you said there is no minor or major versions concept.

If the above option doesn't suit you then you have to maintain the draft and the versions using custom code.

Hi,
Item versions are maintained only when the versioning is enabled. Maybe you can maintain a minor version as drafted version and major as a published version.

Thank you Sudharsan. I done with the work Around of Custom Code to maintain versions for List.
I have used another temporary list to store draft versions and Main list is for Major versions.
It works!
