GRB 190114C is a famous Gamma-Ray Burst (GRB) due to its detection at sub-TeV energies by MAGIC, seen at redshift z = 0.42. This burst is one of the brightest GRB detected by \fermi. We present a detailed analysis of GRB 190114C prompt emission, using the two \fermi detectors: GBM and LAT. The \emph{LAT low energy events} (LLE) data is also considered. A joint GBM-LAT analysis reveals a sub-$GeV$ spectral cutoff. A similar high energy cutoff was reported in GRB 160509A and GRB 100724B earlier, and a handful of other sources. The cutoff can be explained by the intrinsic opacity due to pair production within the emitting region. Such morphology in these GRBs suggests that they belong to one specific class having a similar source of the radiation mechanism. GRB 190114C shows a transition from non-thermal to a quasi-thermal-like spectrum along with radiation due to external shock. From spectrum analysis and $Lorentz$ factor evolution from the trigger time to late emission, considering the fact that sub-TeV photons are detected in MAGIC, we are able to draw an emission mechanism picture, where the prompt emission spectrum is more consistent with spectrum via photospheric dissipation with presence of external shock emission simultaneously.
