Various forums say that the IS_MINOR_UPGRADE property (in the ACTION PROPERTY column of the Upgrades view) will be set when the setup.exe (minor upgrade) is launched.
Is there any property that does the same job when the build output is not Setup.exe. All the times my deliverables will not be setup.exe. Some times it may be msi also...
Any ideas???

The action property applies to Major Upgrades, not minor.
If you want to install a minor update in the form of a .msi file (not using setup.exe and not as a .msp patch) you must call msiexec like this:
msiexec.exe /i your.msi REINSTALLMODE=vomus REINSTALL=ALL
There you can append a custom property, like:
msiexec.exe /i your.msi REINSTALLMODE=vomus REINSTALL=ALL MINOR_UPDATE=1
I think it would be best if you tell us what you ultimately want to achieve. Maybe there's a better way.
