Here's the procedure on how to manually install the stock ROM (firmware) on Samsung Galaxy Y GT-S5360. Flashing stock ROMs is useful in downgrading or upgrading to any available firmware versions you desired. This has been also useful for unbricking purposes for a bricked, reverting back to original stock or if you needed your device warranty back.

Back-up all of your important data stored in the phone like contacts, messages and etc. Flashing will wipe and delete all of it.
Ensure that your phone is fully charge or above 80% charge.
Remove the SIM card and the external memory card. (not necessarily but recommended to avoid any certain issues)
Hard Reset - We often do hard reset before flashing to clean the memory cache of the phone. Master reset code *2767*3855# .

There are three
checkboxes on the left side of ODIN, the Re-Partition, Auto Reboot and F.Reset Time.
The Auto Reboot and F.Reset Time are often always checked in flashing while the Re-Partition will only be checked if you want to fix the memory partition of the phone, now if you'll only want to upgrade or downgrade DO NOT CHECK THE REPARTITION.
DO NOT CHECK RE-PARTITION - Safety for Upgrade and Downgrade
