I have existing cert in config/certs/kibana.crt and I have also mentioned it into kibana.yml as server.ssl.certificate : config/certs/kibana.crt. Still I am not able to start my Kibana instance. Getting Error like
log [07:55:15.910] [fatal][root] { Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, open 'config/certs/kibana.crt'

This looks like a file path issue. I would recommend using an absolute path rather than a relative path.
