If upthrust on a body immersed in a fluid is equal to the body's weight, then the net force acting on the body must be ZERO. But, the body sinks, therefore having some acceleration , meaning that net force is NOT ZERO. Please help me out with this confusion......

The buoyancy force in the water acts upon the thing. Which is immersed in the liquid and. If the buoyant force and the weight is equal then it floats and it means net force here is zero and when weight is less than that force the body remains on the surface

The body doesn't sinks. If the upthrust is equal to the weight of the body the body floats just below the surface of liquid.
It means that it remains immersed. The net force on the body remains zero,, this the reason why it doesn't sinks and not even floats above water.
This has also been shown in the laws of flotation.
