I am having some issue in executing in setting values in .bashrc file on ssh

Interactive shells are different:

* they don't read .profile
* they read .bashrc, but your bashrc returns early:

****** And here is .bashrc file:

{{{
shantanu@ubox:~$ cat .bashrc
# ~/.bashrc: executed by bash(1) for non-login shells.
# see /usr/share/doc/bash/examples/startup-files (in the package bash-doc)
# for examples

# If not running interactively, don't do anything
[ -z "$PS1" ] && return

There.

Move your variable definition above that line and it will be used both
for interactive and non-interactive shell sessions.
