Installshield - Uninstall patch is not getting listed under Installed updates

I have read that i can create uninstallable MSP file. I have made the Allow Patch to be uninstalled checked while building the patch, but somehow the patch is not getting visible under Installed updates in the Program and Features screen.

Is there anything else i need to make the patch uninstallable?

I have checked and the project satisfies all the conditions. Actually ,  I have done the following

1) Created a sample MSI with default settings and added one dll file

2) Created a patch for the above said MSI and replaced the dll with a newer version . The settings  of the patch project is attached as screenshots with this message.

 

Please let me know if i am missing something.

 

Thanks,
