Solution

  • Starting from 1 April-2018, apple stopped accepting the apps which are build with iOS SDK lower than 11.0.

    As per article on 15 Feb, 2018:

    From starting in April of 2018, all new apps submitted to the App Store must be built using the iOS 11 SDK, which is included in Xcode 9 or later.

    For more detail

    Latest news on 12 Sept:

    Starting March 2019, all new apps and app updates for iPhone, including universal apps, will need to be built with the iOS 12 SDK and support iPhone XS Max.

    For more detail

    What to do now?

    You have to download the Xcode 9.0 or later which have iOS SDK version greater than 11.0 and build with your IPA with the new Xcode.( My suggestion is to use Xcode 9.3, as installing Xcode 10 will need upgrading your system as well. Also there can be some extra work to be done as Xcode 10 have support for iOS 12 as well.)
