Thanks")* There is no link between the custom fields of an option and the product page of the main product where that option is used, so you won't see your custom fields. You should add them to the main product. Then, it would require some javascript customization in the "option" file of the view "product" via the menu display->Views to display/hide the custom fields based on the option selection.

So I thought of either adding two fields manually to product update page in the backend and update database accordingly so that it will be populated in the frontend display as well or I can can I have option to create field using custom fields and have the same populated in products page. The reason is, each product will have different warranty and different condition. Also if I need to edit product update page which file should I need to use. Thanks in advance.

For the product edition page, you should edit the file "form" of the view "product" for your back end template via the menu Display->Views.
