Yes right, SFTP tools do not support interactive(Manual) mode of authentication.
Only 1. mobile app notification works.
Thank you all.

Re: Manual MFA not working
The authentication possibly involves a use of a shell. In that case you cannot use SFTP. It's not a problem of a client, but of a wrong implementation of the authentication on the server side.
Post a PuTTY screenshot and event log, if you want us to check, if my assumption is correct. Use PuTTY 0.72.

Re: Manual MFA not working
Can you login with "Manual MFA code entry" using any SFTP client? Like PuTTY
psftp or OpenSSH sftp?

Manual MFA not working
We have MFA activated(PingID) on login.
So there are 2 modes how MFA works
1. mobile app notification
2. Manual MFA code entry
While login to WInSCp if we choose 2. Manual MFA code entry...it directly throw below error.
But we can login if we choose 1. mobile app notification.
also both options work if we login to normal CLI(putty) shell.
Just winscp client doesnt ask for MFA code while login and throws error.
How to resolve this. Does WinSCp not support this?
