Hi Sharmila,
I'm not an expert but had the same problem with Kibana-4.6.2 and solved it with the right kibana-plugin syntax which seems wrong in your post, if I'm not wrong too.
That's what I did on my PC:
* * *
C:\zApps\[elastic.co](http://elastic.co)\kibana\kibana-4.6.2-windows-x86\> bin\kibana.bat plugin -i sense -u file://C:\zApps\[elastic.co](http://elastic.co)\kibana\kibana-4.6.2-windows-x86\downloadedPlugins\sense-2.0.0-beta7.tar.gz

* * *
As you may notice, I used "kibana plugin -i" (-i = install) command, not "kibana-plugin", pointing it to the downloaded file (notice the slashes/backslashes, half \*nix half windows).
It worked for me, I hope it helps you too.
Regards,
LC
