I searched a lot for this in Google, but no hope, how to check the OS version of Bluestacks emulator in Windows? There is a video in YouTube for checking bluestack version, but not the Android version used in it.
I went to settings – > Advanced settings, but there was no tab corresponding to About
tab which is found in an Android emulator like in the case of Genymotion emulator.

There is an easier way of getting to know the android version without having to install any application.
There are some scripts (php/js) that can detect your android version while visiting websites:
Try; http://demo.mobiledetect.net/ Or; http://detectmobilebrowsers.com/

Install Terminal Emulator from Play Store, open the application and type:
getprop ro.build.version.release
you will get something like: 4.4.4
for KitKat.
or
getprop ro.build.version.sdk
for getting the sdk version which will return 19

Open a browser in Bluestacks and go to http://demo.mobiledetect.net
I have tested this on multiple devices of which the Android version is known, and it is accurate. Currently responds to Bluestacks as v4.4.2 (Kitkat)

Without any installation, you could use your adb commands.
For example, for your main emulator
adb -s emulator-5554 shell getprop ro.build.version.release
adb -s emulator-5554 shell getprop ro.build.version.sdk
For your multi emulators add up by 10,
adb -s emulator-5564 shell getprop ro.build.version.release
adb -s emulator-5564 shell getprop ro.build.version.sdk
adb -s emulator-5574 shell getprop ro.build.version.release
adb -s emulator-5574 shell getprop ro.build.version.sdk
//... so on
You could also do the shell commands by their local ip,
adb -s 127.0.0.1:5555 shell getprop ro.build.version.release
adb -s 127.0.0.1:5555 shell getprop ro.build.version.sdk
adb -s 127.0.0.1:5565 shell getprop ro.build.version.release
adb -s 127.0.0.1:5565 shell getprop ro.build.version.sdk
adb -s 127.0.0.1:5575 shell getprop ro.build.version.release
adb -s 127.0.0.1:5575 shell getprop ro.build.version.sdk
//... so on
