How does upthrust acting on a particular body varies with the depth of a particular liquid in which it is immersed?

The up thrust or buoyancy will not change with depth, if the density of the liquid is constant. If the density increases, the up thrust also increases and if the density decreases, up thrust also decreases.

Cheers!!
