Hello !@Djeanthi2215
Do you mean the color categories that you can add to emails and calendar events?
If that is the case then yes you can deploy this to the whole organisation using GPO or Intune Configuration profiles.
What you want to do is create a new reg key in the following path
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\16.0\Outlook\Preferences
And the key you want to create will have these properties
Type: String
Name: newcategories
Value: The name of your categories separated by ";" See picture below for example
Now after I have done the above change in my registry, If i Look in Outlook at my categories in the calendar I can see these new categories.
Is this what you were looking for?
If that is the case, you can deploy this reg key to your users via GPO or Intune configuration profiles 🙂
Let me know how it goes or if you have further questions
If this helped solve your issue feel free to mark my reply as "best solution"

I could not see "new Category" at preferences as given below. Also let me know more about how to set via GPO or Intune configuration profiles .
Thanks!
Hello again! @Djeanthi2215
You have to create it under Preferences yourself.
Do the following
1: Right click the white the "preferences" folder
2: Choose "New" and then "String Value"
3: name it "newcategories" and then click enter
4: Doubleclick "newcategories" to modify it
5: in "value data" Write the following to add the categories that you had in your example
and then click "OK"
Needs analasys; Demo; Contract; Renewal
6: Restart Outlook and you will see the new categories 🙂
Let me know how it goes! And then we can discuss Intune or GPO
