Hello @anilkumar.cisco 

You are looking from the perspective of the Windows PC only, and you should be validating this against ISE instead. if you click on a certificate in Windows, then Windows will tell you whether or not it can figure out the CA hierarchy. If you have installed the Root CA cert and any intermediate CA certs, then Windows will display the complete hierarchy.  You can do that on your Windows PC (add the missing Root and intermediate CA certs) and then delete the certs afterwards. I sometimes place them in the Trusted CA store for validation purposes only.

You can also use OpenSSL and do all this on the CLI. But in this case you also need the complete CA cert chain.
