One more thing under the FakeSMC folder there are 4 other FakeSMC kexts and HW sensor ...do I need to copy that as well or only copying FakeSMC Ket Should be enough ???

You really need to read the guide. Your question is answered in the guide.

Hint: FakeSMC sensor kexts not required, not recommended.
Hint #2: HwMonitor.app is not a kext.

Many thanks for clarifying this....I have included the kext in the /kext/Others folder

Other than FakeSMC there is no other kext have to be present right in the Other folder ???? like PS2 and other ???

I can tell you still didn't read the guide.
If you don't put PS2 kexts there, you will not be able to use your PS2 keyboard and trackpad.
And you would have to use a USB keyboard and mouse.

If that's ok with you, then you don't need the PS2 kext.
My guess is that you expect to use your PS2 devices while you perform the upgrade.
 
Dear Rehman, I would tell you you are really a Very Good man brother, after I copied the FakeSMC and Ps2 Kext in kext/Other folder and rebooted my laptop....believe me...the screen grabbiness during booting is not more yay !!! :)

I have a very bad internet connection its download is getting interrupted for 10.12 .1 tried 2 time and its such a PITA....I will update you once I update my OSX and regarding the Volume Control by Keyboard
 
Update: I have updated to Latest 10.12.1 without any issues, really went well and no error or a single glitch. every thing is normal and the Volume control via Function keys are also working !!!! :)

One Concern regarding the About this Mac

in About this Mac its showing as MacBook Pro (Retina, 13-inch, Late 2013) as in SMBIOS setting I have used as per guide the value is MacBookPro11,1

Is there any possibility I can change that or there will be any issues if I change the value ???

It is as you should expect with MacBookPro11,1.
You shouldn't really concern yourself with cosmetic details.
You could use another Haswell SMBIOS, such as MacBookAir6,2 if you wanted...

Is SysPrefs->Displays working?

Refer to everymac.com for possibilities. If you're thinking MacBookPro11,2... bad idea.

Just that some displays have an issue with 10.12 (mostly solvable)
