    Finally, after numerous trail and errors, I got this working.
    In the [certsrv_server] section, i had to make these changes.
     HashAlgorithm=SHA-1 --------->should be SHA1
     SharedFolder=%SYSTEMROOT%\CAConfig ----->I had to hardcode; C:\CAConfig.
    Also, I had to change the source file locations in the registry(HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Setup\SourcePath) value to source dir which contains the i386 (default is the source from where the OS was installed), in case if you are not installing from initial source path.

    thanks, -Noor Syed.
