Could you please try following, written and tested with shown samples in GNU awk.

awk 'BEGIN{FS=OFS="="} /^VARIABLE/{$NF=sprintf("%02d",$NF+1)} 1' Input_file > temp && mv temp Input_file

Explanation: Adding detailed explanation for above.

awk '                             ##Starting awk program from here.
BEGIN{                            ##Starting BEGIN section of this program from here.
  FS=OFS="="                      ##Setting FS and OFS as = here.
}
/^VARIABLE/{                      ##Checking condition if line starts from VARIABLE then do following.
  $NF=sprintf("%02d",$NF+1)       ##Adding 1 last field and saing it to last field with 2 digits value.
}
1                                 ##1 will print the current line.
' Input_file > temp && mv temp Input_file                      ##Mentioning Input_file name here.

You can do it quite simply as a one-liner in Perl:

perl -i -pe '/^VARIABLE=/ && s/(\d+)/$&+1/e' file

In case you are unfamiliar with Perl, that says...

Run Perl and modify file in-place. if you come to any lines containing VARIABLE=, substitute the digits on that line with an expression calculated as "whatever the number was +1"

Note that Perl is a standard part of macOS - i.e. automatically included with all versions.
