supposed the same holes we have in ordinary flange design but they are tapped holes.

I don't think so.
Instead of 4 or 8 or 12 evenly spaced holes with an outside clamping force on to the back side of the full thickness of the flange, you now have 8 or 12 holes in the flange being pulled out by their threads. The flange will distort more, loosen the gasket seating forces.

rezapayvar, you may want to look at Studded Outlets for an example. I have no idea of what you are attaching the tapped flange to, but the attached link will provide some examples of proven designs.
