When a new version/update of an existing app is built, the app is not installed/updated over existing APK, whereas if the APK isn’t installed previously on the device the updated APK is installed easily

All I did was changing the version from ‘1.0.0’ to ‘1.0.1’ in config.xml file.  
Any ideas?  
Thanks.
