Solution:

Navigate to Business Intelligence -> coreapplication ->Capacity Management' tab -> 'Scalability' sub-tab
Click on 'Lock and Edit Configuration' button
Enter the IP address in the 'Listen Address' field
Click on 'Activate Changes' followed by 'Release Configuration' buttons
Restart BI Server and Presentation Services.

After Adding the Listener Address my issue was resolved.

Core Issue behind the scenes:

Please have loop back adapter installed in your system. My server IP changed when i connected to internet and it was the issue.
