Finally, after long research, I was able to figure out and find a way to achieve this.
I used maven-antrun-plugin, to get this thing done.
Below is the code snippet, can be useful for someone, hence sharing.


   <build>    
      <plugins>
         <plugin>
            <artifactId>maven-antrun-plugin</artifactId>
            <version>1.7</version>
            <executions>
               <execution>
                  <phase>generate-sources</phase>
                  <configuration>

                     <!– Place any ant task here. You can add anything you can add between 
                        <target> and </target> in a build.xml. –>
                     <target name="increment-build-number">
                     <echo>Incrementing Build Number and Updating module.properties file.</echo>
                        <property file="src/main/amp/module.properties" />
                        <propertyfile file="src/main/amp/module.properties">
                           <entry key="build.number" type="int" default="0"
                              operation="+" />
                           <entry key="module.version" type="string" operation="="
                              value="${major.version}.${minor.version}.${build.number}" />
                        </propertyfile>
                     </target>
                  </configuration>
                  <goals>
                     <goal>run</goal>
                  </goals>
               </execution>
            </executions>
         </plugin>
      </plugins>
