In winter my car is giving out very small amount of water from exhaust pipe while other cars of same model expel a lot of water in winter.there is no check engine light, no driveability problem, car runs smooth and fuel economy is also very good. moreover engine is not consuming engine oil.

I would not be concerned at all. condensation is the process and you are fine. dont worry about the other cars, they may be the ones with the problem.

The convertor converts exhaust gases to CO2 and water, the amount of water out the exhaust depends on outside temp, length of exhaust etc.

I would also not be concerned. If convertor is not operating within normal range it will set a DTC code.
