Hi Priyesh,

Greetings to you!

Please try the below code, I have tested in my org and it is working fine. Kindly modify the code as per your requirement.
 
trigger UpdateAccBasedOnCon on Contact (after insert, after update) {
    
    List<Id> accIds = new List<Id>();
    List<Account> accounts = new List<Account>();
    
    for(Contact c : trigger.new){
        accIds.add(c.accountId);
    }
    
    for(Account a : [SELECT Id, Phone, Rating FROM Account WHERE Id IN :accIds]){
        for(Contact con : trigger.new){
            a.Phone=con.Phone;
            accounts.add(a);
        }
    }
    if(accounts.size()>0){
        UPDATE accounts;        
    } 
}

I hope it helps you.

Hi Priyesh,

Here is the trigger which works for you scenario:
trigger ContactTrigger on Contact (before insert,before update,after insert,after update) {
    
    if(Trigger.isAfter)
    {
        Map<Id,String> accPhone =new Map<Id,String>();
        if(Trigger.isInsert||Trigger.isUpdate)
        {
		if(Trigger.isInsert )
        {
            for(Contact con:Trigger.new)
            {
			   
                if(con.Phone!=null)
                accPhone.put(con.AccountId,con.Phone);
            }
        }
         else if(Trigger.isUpdate )
         {
             for(Contact con:Trigger.new)
             {
                 if(con.Phone!=trigger.oldMap.get(c.Id).Phone && con.Phone!=null)
                 accPhone.put(con.AccountId,con.Phone);
             }
             
         }
         
         List<Account> accList=new List<Account>([Select id,Phone from Account where id in: accPhone.keySet()]);
         for(Account acc:accList)
         {
             acc.Phone=accPhone.get(acc.Id);
         }
         update accList;
        }
    }
}
Thanks
