Solution –

In my case. We have a third party software – Dell Change Auditor which added a line in Web.config file of Outlook Web Access.

After Removing the entry of the Dell Change Auditor Entry from the Owa web.config file and did iisreset. Outlook web Access Started functioning without any issues.
