" I will keep you updated if I get his reply." vs " I will keep you updated if I got his reply."

The correct sentence is "I will keep you updated if I get his reply." "Get" in the present tense is appropriate when referring to a future event. "I will keep you updated if I got his reply," is incorrect because "got" is the past tense and does not match the future context of the sentence.
