Hello,
Due to abrupt restart of the PC, Bios error started occurring, but it is logging to the PC.
would like to understand whether it will lead to any other issue or not.
Also why this error is occurring and how this can be avoided or tackled?

The issue might be related to what is told on this thread:
linux.org/threads/efi-stub-error-unable-to-allocate-memory-for-evernt-logs.45091/

Welcome to the forums gnanamsc, but why begin two topics trying to get urgent attention?

(sigh) If you could still use the computer then you might have to deal with it. Otherwise rebooting suddenly is not nice, it might be a hardware issue. Something not connected right or is a lemon. Very less likely Ubuntu doesn't have support for a hardware component. It might be flawed RAM chips. (shrugs) I had a laptop failing its hard disk on me thanks to Windows7, but it was obvious that disk was failing, and also I was getting "Your DMAR is broken" LOL message during boot time from 32-bit Ubuntu Studio LTS v12.04. Otherwise I have no experience with desktop built-it-yourself stuff.
 
Welcome to the forums
you have 4 related questions open, so I have 2 for you
What is the make and full model number of your machine [some problems are machine specific]
Which distribution have you installed?

Hello @Brickwizard :
We are using a Advantech MicroPC UNO-2372G and ubuntu 20.04 desktop version
 
Had a look at the build spec for these little boxes, I can not see anything, component wise that general would cause problems
I concur with @f33dm3bits on trying disabling the APCI

further possibilities from the Ubuntu Wiki site

Trouble Booting​

For detailed instructions regarding how to modify boot parameters see DebuggingKernelBoot.

  1. Try booting with the "acpi=off" kernel parameter
    • This will disable ACPI support. If the error is the same with ACPI enabled and disabled, this may not be an ACPI issue.
  2. If "acpi=off" allows the system to boot, try to isolate the ACPI issue with the following boot parameters
    • Try booting with "acpi=ht"
      • This disables all of ACPI except just enough to enable Hyper Threading. If acpi=off works and acpi=ht fails, then the issue is in the ACPI table parsing code itself, or perhaps the SMP code.
    • Try booting with "pci=noacpi"
      • This disables ACPI for IRQ routing and PCI scanning.
    • Try booting with "acpi=noirq"
      • This disables ACPI for IRQ routing.
    • Try booting with "pnpacpi=off"
      • This disables the ACPI component of the Linux Plug and Play code.
    • Try booting with "noapic"
      • Disables the IO-APIC for IRQ routing or PCI scanning.
    • Try booting with "nolapic"
      • Disables the local APIC.
