tar -pczf MyBackup.tar.gz <file which needs to be inside>
will above command standard?
I have only concern is that wthether the above command generates tar file temporarily then delete afterwards? or it not at all generates tar file?
"tar" is a standard command. The standard version of "tar" has no "-z" switch at all, therefore you can't expect it to be able to understand it. Only the GNU version of "tar" has this extension. Therefore the second version Corona688 told you should be preferred. It will work everywhere, including GNU systems, while your version will work ONLY on GNU systems:
It is generally better not to rely on extensions to the standard but to use only what the standard defines. By "standard" i mean POSIX here.

shape_tar
SHAPE_TAR(1) General Commands Manual SHAPE_TAR(1)NAME
shape_tar - shapeTools RMS bundle up subsystem in a tar or shar archive
SYNOPSIS
shape tar[VERSIONS=<version_selection_rule>] [ARCHIVE=<filename>]
shape shar[VERSIONS=<version_selection_rule>] [ARCHIVE=<filename>]
DESCRIPTION
Shape tar and shape shar create a tar or a shar archive containing all source components of the current node in the system tree. All source
components listed in the COMPONENTS macro in the Makefile and the release identification file (VERSIONFILE) are written to the archive.
Components of subsystems are not included in the archive file.
The VERSIONS macro may be set to specify a version selection rule to be active during archive file creation. Default is most_recent,
selecting the most recent version of each component. See shape_stdrul(7) or the $(SHAPELIBPATH)/stdrules for other possible settings. You
may also use self defined version selection rules as VERSIONS.
ARCHIVE is the base name of the file where the output shall be written to. Default is $(SUBSYSTEMNAME). The output file gets the filename
extension .tar (resp. .shar). When ARCHIVE=- is given, data will be written to standard output.
