Hi Farrukh,

I eventually used 
*DetectPackageComplete:*
    if (e.State == PackageState.Present)

Thanks for your help!

Roni,
I'm developing Managed Bootstrapper upon Burn to extend the capability and get more control over it.
I handle already installed Package and Bundle in following two events:
*DetectRelatedBundle:*
    if (e.Operation == RelatedOperation.Downgrade)
    if (e.Operation == RelatedOperation.MajorUpgrade || e.Operation ==
RelatedOperation.MinorUpdate)

*DetectPackageComplete:*
    if (e.State == PackageState.Present)

Hope this may give you some idea ....
