@Naresh Babu - Thanks for reaching out to us.

While you can use your own custom scripts, deployed through Run Command or Azure Automation, and alternatively define Desired State Configuration for your Arc-enabled servers, native 3rd party software deployment options like VM Apps are not yet available for Azure Arc but are an area of activation investigation.

So please, if you would like to have that feature, request you to provide feedback here

Hope this helps. and please feel free to reach out if you have any further questions.
