Hi irfanmoosani,
Joomla uses administrator/language/overrides/en-GB.override.ini for the backend and language/overrides/en-GB.override.ini for the frontend. So, you have to set PLG_USER_PROFILE_FIELD_PHONE_LABEL into the file language/overrides/en-GB.override.ini too.

Thanks for reporting this but I am closing it as expected behaviour. When creating an override for a string in the admin (plugins are in the admin) there is an option "For Both Locations" - see the tooltip

If this box is checked the override will be stored for both administrator (Backend) and site (Frontend). This is essential for creating language overrides for some plugins because their language files, while stored in backend, are also used in frontend (example: plg_content_vote).
Please note that the two overrides will be completely independent from each other after storing them.

Thanks

Thats what I am trying to say. Its not even available in front end.
Try this :
Extension > Languages > Override > New
and search for PLG_USER_PROFILE_FIELD_PHONE_LABEL costant

It will say No result found.

Am I making sense?

Plugins don't have a frontend language file. Their language files only exist in the administrator directory.

Its says no result found because there is nothing to find

Interesting.
Although we do indeed have a tip for the For Both Locations when creating an override for the admin files, this tip will not show when looking for a string while searching in site as the box is not present there.
I wonder if we should add the plugin matter in

COM_LANGUAGES_VIEW_OVERRIDE_SEARCH_TIP="A language string is composed of two parts: a specific language constant and its value.<br />For example, in the string: COM_CONTENT_READ_MORE=&quot;Read more: &quot;<br />'<u>COM_CONTENT_READ_MORE</u>' is the constant and '<u>Read more: </u>' is the value.<br />You have to use the specific language constant in order to create an override of the value.<br />Therefore, you can search for the constant or the value you want to change with the search field below.<br />By selecting the desired result the correct constant will automatically be inserted into the form."

Another way, more complex, would be to search in the admin files if no result while searching in site files and, if a result is obtained, display a message and let use the constant.
