I want to use \cyrgup in my document for some derivations. Is there any package that needs to be installed?

What should this symbol look like? Please post an image and take a look on http://tex.stackexchange.com/q/14 first. How did you come up with this command? Never heard of it but I suppose you read it somewhere. – LaRiFaRi Dec 16 '14 at 06:04

See http://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/14633/what-packages-will-let-me-use-cyrillic-characters-in-math-mode for how to use the letter in math mode. – egreg Dec 16 '14 at 07:47

The \cyrgup command is defined in the T2A font encoding (cyrillic and not greek...), so it should suffice to load the package fontenc with that encoding table.
MWE:
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage[T1,T2A]{fontenc}
\begin{document}
\cyrgup
\end{document}

Some other fonts. As can be seen here, the command \cyrgup is a mapping to the unicode U+0491 CYRILLIC SMALL LETTER GHE WITH UPTURN. Here are the available fonts and you may fonts installed on your machine to see the possible symbols.
% arara: pdflatex
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[T2A]{fontenc}
\usepackage{gentium}
\begin{document}
\cyrgup
\end{document}

% arara: lualatex
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{fontspec}
\newcommand*{\cyrgup}{\symbol{"0491}}
\begin{document}
\setmainfont{code2000.ttf}
\cyrgup
\setmainfont{symbola.ttf}
\cyrgup
\setmainfont{quivira.otf}
\cyrgup
\setmainfont{EB Garamond}
\cyrgup
\setmainfont{Linux Libertine O}
\cyrgup
\end{document}
