@hemantaltair you sure you are using the salt-winrepo-ng ? What you describe seems to be a problem with you using the salt execution module for salt. that is something different from this repo here. Note the chocolatey.sls winrepo-ng pkg. installer file mentions the difference.

Function: pkg.installed is a salt execution module state and NOT a winrepo-ng and chocolatey.sls related issue.

see https://github.com/saltstack/salt-winrepo-ng/blob/master/chocolatey/init.sls

this software also has it's own salt execution module, which you might prefer to use, see

http://docs.saltstack.com/en/latest/ref/modules/all/salt.modules.chocolatey.html

for usage examples see

saltstack/salt#15709 (comment)

Would you please close this issue if indeed your usage issue is with the above mentioned chocolatey salt execution module. Thanks.
