    Hi @TA.Saurabh.Singh ,

    Welcome to our forum!

    Based on my research, i found a thread mentioned that we can use the SharePoint built-in calendar overlays to customize color code Calendars in SharePoint Online. However, actually, it’s a calendar view. It’s not feasible to sync to Outlook. The color category set in Outlook cannot be synced to SharePoint Online Calendar either.
