Hi Rajesh, I believe that the ShortCircuit feature is what you want which along with the priority level helps controls the order of rules.
https://spamassassin.apache.org/full/3.4.x/doc/Mail_SpamAssassin_Plugin_Shortcircuit.html Beyond that, the order they run is complicated depending on the type of rules and I'm not sure there is a good, documented answer for it. Will have to defer to another person on that but that ShortCircuit might be enough to serve your purpose.
