 when I do

 $tshark -v
TShark 1.8.10 (SVN Rev Unknown from unknown)

I got the above. In my machine, I dont have wireshark GUI, have
tshark. Therefore, there is no init.lua file in my machine.

Does "tshark -v" say "with Lua" somewhere in its output?

Send us the entire output of "tshark -v", so we know what version of TShark you're using.

If this is you:

        https://ask.wireshark.org/questions/39777/canot-run-lua-script-in-tshark

then the answer to Jeff's question is "no", and that's why it's not working - the version of Wireshark you have 
doesn't include support for Lua scripts, as it's not linked with the Lua interpreter.
