@GuruPrasad1  I believe it depends on the use case/requirement/budget to go for any specific Azure blob storage type i.e. hot or cold.  Is there any specific use case you have and can share details?

 

As such, there is no restriction to use any specific storage type which I know and can refer the help center details as well for details  -
